Appointment cost breakdown

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
ElevenLabs charges $0.08/min base for voice AI, but adds LLM token costs and telephony fees on top. The true cost lands around $0.15–$0.20+/min depending on model and usage. PeakSend charges $0.11–$0.16/min all-in with no surcharges or hidden fees.
ElevenLabs is a general-purpose conversational AI platform built for use cases like customer service, appointment setting, and omnichannel support. It doesn't include sales-specific features like objection handling, local presence dialing, DID reputation management, or follow-up cadences. PeakSend bundles all of those into its sales enhancement layer.
ElevenLabs does not offer built-in number pool management, local presence dialing, or DID rotation. Phone numbers are available at cost as a pass-through. PeakSend charges $0.02/call for phone numbers (amortized from ~$1.40/mo per number) and $0.03/call for DID management, which includes automatic DID rotation, spam-likely detection, local presence dialing, intelligent follow-ups, and unlimited concurrency.
ElevenLabs concurrency depends on your plan tier: 4 concurrent calls on the free tier up to 40 on the Scale plan ($99–$990/mo). Exceeding your limit triggers burst pricing at 2x the normal rate. PeakSend has no concurrency limits.
