Verdicts

Infobip Calls API + MCP

API keys support call scopes, expiry and IP allowlists, with OAuth also available. US outbound calls cost about $0.067 a minute.

Sinch Voice API + MCP

Voice API v2 with bidirectional PCM streams and a text relay that handles barge-in. Two API generations with different hosts, auth and markup, and v1 release notes stop in 2022.

Before you call either

Infobip Calls API + MCP

  1. Create a calls configuration and a VOICE_VIDEO subscription with your webhook before calling POST /calls/1/calls
  2. Use your account's own base URL, not api.infobip.com
  3. Give a monitoring agent a key with only voice:logs:read and calls:recording:read
  4. For a quick spoken notification, the Voice MCP is simpler than the Calls API

Sinch Voice API + MCP

  1. Start new work on Voice API v2 at voice.api.sinch.com. v1 is the older callout model
  2. Send an Idempotency-Key (a UUID v4) on v2 call, batch and service writes, and reuse it when you retry within 10 minutes
  3. Use the MCP tts-callout tool for one-off spoken notifications, and the REST API for anything that streams audio
  4. Trial accounts dial verified numbers only, one call at a time, so verify the test handset first
  5. Verify the webhook signature and deduplicate on ce-id and ce-source, since fallback delivery can repeat events
