| What matters | APIFleet | PolyAI |
|---|---|---|
| Starting point | $0.03 per connected AI minute Platform fee, billed per second | Scope a quote Enterprise requirements and deployment |
| Payment model | Prepaid usage. $10 minimum top-up. No monthly subscription or free credits. | Discuss enterprise scope with sales; the public site does not provide a comparable standard per-minute quote. |
| Cost scope | AI providers and carrier charges are additional. Customer-owned keys are paid directly to providers. | Confirm implementation, usage, support and integration responsibilities in the proposal. |
| Working style | Configurable assistants, tools, knowledge, browser tests, simulations and call logs. | Enterprise conversational agents and Dialog Studio tooling for customer interactions. |
Compare operational requirements before procurement models.
Contact-center projects can involve integration, procurement and operating requirements that go well beyond configuring an assistant. Put those requirements in writing. A lower usage price cannot substitute for a contractual or operational capability your organization needs.
When PolyAI may fit
Evaluate PolyAI when you are selecting an enterprise customer-service platform and need a scoped engagement around your operations.
When APIFleet may fit
Evaluate APIFleet when a developer-led rollout with configurable agents, direct API integration and prepaid usage matches your requirements.
APIFleet currently limits new workspace access. Existing users can sign in; contact us about a new project. Carrier accounts, standalone previews, file transcription and simulation caller/judge models require customer-owned credentials.
Two workloads to price explicitly
These hypothetical examples assume exactly 1,000 or 10,000 connected AI minutes. They calculate APIFleet’s platform portion only; model, speech, carrier, numbers and any other service charges must be added.
| Workload | APIFleet platform arithmetic | PolyAI estimate |
|---|---|---|
| Pilot: 1,000 minutes | 1,000 × $0.03 = $30.00 | Apply the vendor’s published or quoted terms to the same provider stack and duration. |
| Operation: 10,000 minutes | 10,000 × $0.03 = $300.00 | Include subscriptions, allowances, overages, rounding and implementation work when applicable. |
A bundled vendor rate cannot be compared directly to the APIFleet platform portion. We do not infer PolyAI’s concurrency or seat limits from a minute rate; confirm them for your planned workload.
Run a one-assistant switching pilot
Before switching from PolyAI, recreate one assistant, replay its tool requests, test interruptions and transfers, then move one controlled route with a written rollback. Use the voice-agent migration checklist and conversation test plan with the vendor-specific checks below.
What to test before switching
- Document required integrations and the team responsible for each one.
- Ask for usage, implementation and support costs as distinct line items.
- Validate procurement requirements directly; do not assume equivalent contracts.
There is no universal one-click import. Map prompts, tools, credentials and routing explicitly, then run controlled calls. Our gradual migration guide gives you a sequence with a rollback boundary.
