About the company

Retell AI provides a platform for developers to build, test, deploy, and monitor AI-powered voice agents. It offers a voice AI API and an agent builder that lets users create custom voice agents to automate and optimize communication processes, designed to handle complex workflows and scale to production-ready levels. The platform works by giving developers an API plus a visual/programmable builder to design agents, integrate them into systems, and manage deployment and monitoring for production use. Its differentiators include an end-to-end lifecycle toolkit for AI voice agents, support for complex call workflows at scale, and ecosystem partnerships (e.g., Data Leaders, Cal.com) that expand integrations. Retell AI’s goal is to help businesses improve their call operations and customer interactions by adding reliable AI-driven voice capabilities through a scalable developer platform.

VoiceAIWrapper launches Retell AI white label platform for agencies to resell voice agents under their own brand

VoiceAIWrapper has launched a white label platform enabling agencies to resell Retell AI voice agents under their own branding. The platform provides client portals on custom domains, workspace management, reporting, and Stripe billing integration. The Dubai-based company addresses the gap between creating voice agents and delivering them to clients. Agencies can set their own pricing through recurring plans, usage packs, or one-time fees. VoiceAIWrapper charges a flat monthly fee without adding per-minute markups to Retell AI usage. The platform supports 11 languages and integrates with tools including GoHighLevel, HubSpot, and Twilio. It also accommodates multiple voice AI providers such as Vapi, ElevenLabs Agents, and Bolna. Plans start at $79 monthly for five client accounts, with a seven-day trial available. Over 1,000 agencies have used the platform. VoiceAIWrapper holds SOC 2 Type 2 certification and complies with GDPR and HIPAA regulations.
