About Retell AI

Retell AI is a developer platform for building and deploying AI voice agents that handle real phone calls in natural, spoken conversation. Rather than a rigid IVR menu, a Retell agent listens, responds with low latency, handles interruptions like a human, and can take actions mid-call by hitting a company's APIs — looking up an order, booking an appointment, or updating a CRM. The platform is model-flexible: teams choose the LLM that drives reasoning (GPT, Claude, and others) and the voice provider that shapes how the agent sounds (including ElevenLabs), balancing realism against cost. Telephony is built in, supporting both inbound lines (support, reception) and outbound campaigns (reminders, lead follow-up, surveys). Retell serves both non-developers through a no-code agent builder and engineers through a full API and SDKs with function calling. Pricing is usage-based, billed roughly per minute on top of LLM and voice costs, with post-call transcripts, recordings, and structured analytics for measuring and improving agents.
