Why people pick it vs where it falls short
Why people pick it
- Routes all three voice-agent model legs behind one public API and customer-side gateway
- Publishes a clear public-preview price boundary for managed routing and bundled infrastructure
- Gateway documentation includes signed session plans, replay protection and a local BYOK path
Where it falls short
- Public preview has no SLA, and independent production evidence is still limited
- Provider rankings and benchmarks are operated by Speko, so teams should reproduce quality and latency tests on their own traffic
- Routing does not remove provider-specific privacy, residency, retention or outage risk
