Prices per concurrent session a month are public without a login for the cloud and for self-hosted licences (20). The Terms of Use (updated 13 October 2026) describe a 21-day trial that needs a name, company and email, and a subscription chosen when it ends, with payments through Stripe. No card is mentioned for the trial, so we counted it as needing none. The sign-up page is drawn by script and was not read (20). An account is created in a browser. POST /ApiKeys needs an existing token, so it does not help a new agent (0). 0 + 20 + 20 + 0 = 40.

46elks Voice API 66

A Swagger 2.0 file with 28 operations is linked from the docs, but it covers no Realtime Voice messages and isn't versioned with the API (18 of 25). An llms.txt written for agents, with a task-to-endpoint table and webhook payloads, while docs pages are HTML (10). Each docs page explains parameters and when webhooks fire, such as voice_start loading only once a call connects (14 of 20). Form-encoded parameters with types in the Swagger file and few enums (9 of 15). Examples in many languages and a JSON error shape, with no error list (10 of 15). The /a1/ path, with no changelog found (5 of 15). 18+10+14+9+10+5 = 66.

jambonz 53

Per the 8 October check, not re-read on 4 November under the terms pause. OpenAPI 3.1 files and an AsyncAPI 2.6.0 file on docs.jambonz.org were read on 8 October, but no page read then or since was recorded as linking them as visible downloads, and the docs host is now paused, so they aren't counted as a published contract (0). llms.txt, per-section indexes and every page as Markdown (10). The verb pages explain use at length. Operation descriptions in the API reference are mostly one line (12 of 20). Enums for call status, direction and mid-call actions and required fields are marked in the reference. to, call_hook, tag and amd are objects, a partial held (11 of 15). The SDK and verb pages carry code examples. Errors are a single msg string, a partial held (8 of 15). The Node.js SDK adds /v1 to the base URL it is given, and the changelog is dated with component version tables (12 of 15). 0 + 10 + 12 + 11 + 8 + 12 = 53.

46elks Voice API 62

Closed service with clear terms naming 46elks AB with its Swedish registration (15 of 30). The privacy policy gives concrete retention, 60 days of traffic data under Swedish law, 14 days of troubleshooting logs and a 90-day history for the customer, with EU storage, and a GDPR page and data protection page exist (24 of 30). No deprecation policy or dated notices found (0 of 20). Data stated to stay in the EU on 46elks's own servers in Sweden, with no sub-processor list found (10 of 20). 15+24+0+10 = 49.

jambonz 52

Per the 8 October check for the privacy policy and docs, not re-read on 4 November under the terms pause. The API server, feature server and SDKs are public under MIT. The product on jambonz.cloud and in the self-hosted packages is jambonz Commercial, which needs a licence key and whose terms forbid modifying its proprietary portions, while the docs still call jambonz open source (20 of 30). The privacy policy is dated 4 May 2021. It gives 30 days for usage data and an opt-out for call detail records. It says audio is never stored on jambonz servers, and the 11.1.6 notes of 4 October 2026 say support keeps SIP and RTP from calls for a few days, with an opt-out added in that release. No DPA was found (10 of 30). No deprecation policy was found. Removals are announced in the release that makes them, such as SMPP and five speech vendors in July and August 2026 (6 of 20). No sub-processor list was found. The policy says servers are in the United States and names a third-party billing partner. Telemetry from self-hosted instances is listed field by field (7 of 20). 20 + 10 + 6 + 7 = 43.

46elks Voice API 47

Graded on the hosted REST and Realtime Voice APIs with the hosted lines. A status page exists, linked from 46elks.com/status on UptimeRobot (20). It draws its data by script from a path its robots.txt disallows, so no history was readable (5). SMS sending speed is documented in the FAQ, but no limit for calls, numbers or WebSocket sessions was found (5 of 15). llms.txt says to retry 5xx with exponential backoff and not to retry 4xx unchanged, with no Retry-After or idempotency for POST /calls (7 of 15). The SLA page commits to support hours and 24/7 error reporting with no uptime figure, and extended SLAs are by sales (0). Voice and Realtime Voice carry no beta label (10). 20+5+5+7+0+10 = 47.

jambonz 38

Graded as a hosted service, the API on jambonz.cloud, which the docs name as the simplest way to start. jambonz's Terms of Use (updated 13 October 2026) bar automated software that crawls or indexes any page of the website, so jambonz pages are per the 8 October check, not re-read on 4 November under the terms pause. No status page is linked from jambonz.org, the docs or the jambonz.cloud landing page (0), so there is no readable incident history (5). Rate limits are published with numbers, 600 requests per 5 minute fixed window per client IP address on the docs page, while the 11.1.6 notes of 4 October 2026 give 4,000 call creations and 600 call status reads a minute per account, a disagreement held as a partial (13 of 15). The API server's code sets standardHeaders on its limiter, so responses carry RateLimit-* headers including the reset, and a client over a limit receives 429. No backoff guidance or idempotency key was found for the REST API (10 of 15). No uptime SLA was found for jambonz.cloud. Support SLAs are sold only with Enterprise support for self-hosted systems (0). The REST and WebSocket APIs carry no beta label (10). 0 + 5 + 13 + 10 + 0 + 10 = 38.
