No per-number or per-minute price is public, API keys carry no scopes, orders have no idempotency key, and outbound calling needs an approved application. Calls travel over SIP only.\n\n**Plivo Voice API.** US outbound at $0.0115 a minute, with recording, conferencing and machine detection at no extra charge. 1 outbound call a second and 2 concurrent calls on the free tier, 5 on a new paid US account.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### DIDWW Voice and Number Management API\n\n1. Send `Api-Key: \u003ckey\u003e` with no `Bearer` prefix, plus `Accept: application/vnd.api+json`, and `Content-Type: application/vnd.api+json` on every request with a body\n2. Set `X-DIDWW-API-Version: 2026-04-16` on each request and read `meta.api_version` in the reply. A header older than the account's version is ignored\n3. Before retrying a timed-out `POST /orders`, list `GET /orders` first. The order is charged to the balance at once and no idempotency key exists\n4. Stay under 20 requests a second per key. On `429` wait before retrying, since no `Retry-After` header is documented\n5. Use `fields[...]`, `filter[...]`, `include` and `page[size]` (default 50, maximum 100) to keep JSON:API replies small\n6. Check `GET /address_requirements` before buying a number. Many countries need a verified identity and address, and the sandbox cannot run identity verification\n7. Create and enable a callback secret in the User Panel before relying on callbacks. Without one nothing is sent, and receivers must verify `X-DIDWW-Signature`\n\n### Plivo Voice API\n\n1. Point the answer URL at XML with a Stream element and bidirectional set to true for a live voice agent\n2. Check concurrency before dialling out in bulk. Above it calls are rejected with hangup cause 5030, above CPS they queue\n3. Don't rely on the status callback alone to learn a call ended. Poll the call if the webhook doesn't arrive\n4. Validate webhook signatures before acting on call events\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, DIDWW Voice and Number Management API or Plivo Voice API?\n\nDIDWW Voice and Number Management API scores 65.1 (B) on agent readiness against Plivo Voice API's 60.4 (C), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories.
