Overview

Vapi is a highly configurable API platform empowering developers to build, test, and deploy advanced voice AI agents. Seamlessly integrated into existing infrastructure, Vapi is trusted by trailblazing startups and Fortune 500 companies alike to scale phone operations efficiently, handling over 400,000 daily calls. By automating both inbound and outbound call processes, Vapi saves hundreds of engineering hours monthly. Designed as a developer-first solution, it offers advanced customisation and low-latency performance for sophisticated conversational AI systems.

How It Works

  • Choose your workflow: Explore thousands of pre-made templates or design a custom workflow. Use the visual workflow builder to connect prompts and set conditional logic for tailored conversations.
  • Plug it in: Integrate the voice AI agent into your telephony system, website, or mobile app seamlessly.
  • Done: Deploy to handle millions of calls, and monitor their performance for optimal operation.

FAQs

What is Vapi?

Vapi is a developer-first platform offering a highly configurable API to build, test, and deploy advanced voice AI agents. It enables businesses to automate and scale their phone operations with human-like conversational AI.

How is Vapi more cost-effective for my organisation?

While some costs (Speech-to-Text, LLM, Text-to-Speech) are incurred with providers like Deepgram, OpenAI, or ElevenLabs, Vapi passes these through at no extra fee. Vapi's fee covers the ongoing maintenance and improvement of its voice AI orchestration, saving organisations significant engineering time and resources.

What is the difference from other AI voice competitors?

Vapi is a middleware layer, allowing companies to bring their own underlying infrastructure for transcription, intelligence, and voice models. Its API-native approach allows extensive customisation and integration, unlike more bundled, less flexible alternatives.

I need holistic customisation, what types of support does your platform offer?

Vapi enables customisation via API-native design: bring your own models, use tool calling, run A/B experiments. Support options include community Discord, detailed documentation, and, for enterprises, 24/7 hands-on support with direct engineering engagement.

Is it difficult to set up?

Vapi is designed for easy deployment — try in minutes, deploy in days. Thousands of pre-made templates and a visual workflow builder lower the barrier, abstracting complexity while giving you the flexibility to tailor your solution.
