Costs
Famulor is a pay-as-you-go platform: you only pay for what you use.Costs are calculated based on your usage, and you have a wallet where 1 credit equals 1 minute of call time.
Types of costs
There are two types of costs:- Famulor costs: These are the costs associated with the AI assistant handling the call.
- Carrier costs: These are the costs associated with the carrier (telephone network) used to make the call.

-
AI Cost
- Minimum charge of 30 seconds (0.5 min) per call. Any call under 30 seconds is billed as 30 seconds - e.g., a 10-second call deducts 0.5 min from your balance.
- Beyond 30 seconds, billing is per second. For example, a 35-second call deducts exactly 35 seconds (~0.58 min) from your balance.
- Fixed reference price: EUR 0.20/call minute.
-
Carrier Cost
- These costs are rounded up to the next minute and depend on the country you are calling.
- We do not add markups; we use the same rates as the carriers.
- Example: for a 30-second call to a US number, you are billed 1 minute x USD 0.01 = USD 0.01.
-
Number Rental
- If you rent a phone number, there is a monthly fee (e.g., EUR 3.99 for a standard US number).
- If your region is not listed, we can custom-provision a number after document verification.
- Each number’s cost is billed monthly until released.
-
Extra Fees (Optional)
- SMS: If your number is SMS-capable, standard per-message fees apply.
- Voicemail detection: Billed as 1 minute per call.
- High-volume usage: Potential bulk discounts for very large monthly volumes.
