About

Plivo is a communications platform that provides voice, SMS, WhatsApp, and chat APIs, along with an AI agent product for building voice agents. The landing page describes no-code and developer-oriented workflows for deploying voice AI agents, including text-to-speech, speech-to-text, turn detection, voice activity detection, and real-time bi-directional audio streaming with under 300 ms latency.

Feature parity 100%

The pricing page explicitly states “$10 in free credits. No credit card required.” under the Pay as you go plan, so this is a free-credit listing with no CC required. Per the provided rule for free_credit, the conservative monthly free-tier value is credit_amount/3 = $10/3 = $3.33. The page also shows an Enterprise plan starting at $1,000/month, but that does not affect the free-credit valuation.
