All-in pricing
One price per minute. Everything included.
Most voice platforms quote a platform fee, then bill transcription, the model, the voice and the phone line on top. MCPDial charges one all-in rate per connected minute — $0.19/min to start, $0.13/min at scale. No seats, no setup fee.

How billing works
No surprises on the invoice
Prepaid credit, metered per connected minute. The fine print, in full:
- Billed per connected minute, rounded up (minimum one minute once answered) — ringing and unanswered calls are free.
- Phone numbers: 3,000 credits ($3.00) a month for a local number, 6,000 credits ($6.00) for mobile or toll-free — charged on purchase, then monthly from credit.
- Browser test calls are free (up to 20 a day, 5 minutes each).
- A call can run as long as your balance covers — it is capped to your credit when it starts, so a balance never goes negative.
- Prepaid credit: 1 credit = $0.001. Top up any time; unused credit does not expire.
Per connected minute
Capped to your credit
Numbers are rented from the same credit balance — local, mobile or toll-free, bought in the dashboard.
Worked examples
What a month could cost
Illustrative volumes at the plan rate, calculated from the same rate table the meter uses. Your actual connected minutes decide the bill.
| Scenario | Connected minutes / month | Plan rate | Estimated total |
|---|---|---|---|
| A clinic receptionist | 1,200 | $0.17/min | $204 |
| A sales team calling warm leads | 4,000 | $0.15/min | $600 |
| A multi-location booking line | 20,000 | $0.13/min | $2,600 |
Scenario roles: AI receptionist, AI sales caller, AI appointment setter.
Same rate from the dashboard, the API or MCP
The rate depends on your plan, not on how the call is placed. Build with the REST API or let any AI agent dial through the MCP voice agent server — metering and credit caps behave the same.
