ElevenLabs alternatives.
For AI voice agents that make phone calls.

1. 1

   Kallix

   Best for indian teams that need phone agents, not a wider voice toolkit

   Price: ₹4.80 a minute plus GST, billed in 30-second pulses, covering voice, speech recognition, the language model and Indian call minutes. Two concurrent calls included, then ₹999 a month each. Numbers from ₹499 a month. ₹500 in free credits.

   Kallix is built only for AI phone calls, India first. Pick a voice from a library of named Indian and international voices, build the agent in the studio, test it against scenarios, then run campaigns and inbound lines on Indian numbers. Agents use a human-like voice and say they're an AI from the first line.

   Good
