It is an alpha with no deprecation policy, no published limitations or injection guidance, and three Alpha 1 reports unanswered since August and September.\n\n**Vocily AI.** The REST API is documented in detail for a product a few months old, with an OpenAPI 3.1 file, required idempotency keys on calls, a Retry-After header on 429 and signed webhooks. No status page, SLA, SDK or security programme was found, and two releases in September 2026 removed fields under `/v1` on the day they were announced.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Pipecat PhoneLLM\n\n1. Send `temperature: 0` on every call. The repositories' generation_config.json samples by default, and Max's sets temperature 1.0\n2. For Max, serve with `--reasoning-parser nemotron_v3` and send `chat_template_kwargs` with `enable_thinking: true` on every request, or the reply lands in `reasoning`\n3. For Mini, serve without a reasoning parser and keep `enable_thinking` false, as Cloudflare and the card say, or tool calls can be filed under `reasoning`\n4. Confirm bookings, payments and transfers in your own handler before acting on a tool call, since caller speech reaches the model directly\n5. Pin the model ID including `alpha-2`. Daily states no notice period, and a later alpha may replace it\n\n### Vocily AI\n\n1. Send a fresh UUID in `Idempotency-Key` on every `POST /v1/calls`. The API refuses the request without it\n2. Pass a `from_number` the workspace holds. The shared Test Number returns 403 from the API\n3. Publish a version and make it live before placing a call, or the call returns 409 `agent_not_published`\n4. Branch on `detail.code`, falling back to the top-level `code`. A 429 body is flat, so read `Retry-After`\n5. Read `currency` on every call and chat record. Costs are in rupees or dollars depending on the organisation\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Pipecat PhoneLLM or Vocily AI?\n\nPipecat PhoneLLM scores 58.7 (C) on agent readiness against Vocily AI's 53.8 (D), and leads in 3 of 7 scored categories. Vocily AI leads on schema \u0026 documentation and agent ergonomics.\n\n### Do Pipecat PhoneLLM and Vocily AI need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Pipecat PhoneLLM and Vocily AI without installing anything?\n\nYes. Pipecat PhoneLLM has a hosted endpoint at https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/{account_id}/ai/run/@cf/daily-co/phonellm-mini-alpha-2 and Vocily AI at https://api.vocily.ai.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/pipecat-phonellm-vs-vocily.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/pipecat-phonellm-vs-vocily.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"pipecat-phonellm\", \"b\": \"vocily\"}`.
