Verdicts

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.

Voximplant

Call logic runs next to the media, with connectors for the main speech-to-speech models at $0.004 a minute. Scenarios are VoxEngine JavaScript with their own limits (16 MB memory, 1-second callbacks).

Before you call either

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

Voximplant

  1. Upload a VoxEngine scenario and a rule first, then start it with StartScenarios and pass the number in script_custom_data
  2. Use a service-account JWT rather than api_key in the URL
  3. Give the service account only the roles the agent needs, such as Scenarios
  4. Ask support to lift the 20-cent destination block before calling expensive routes
