Act 01AI telecaller vs an agency

A telecalling agency, or an AI telecaller on your leads?

Telecalling agencies on IndiaMART list their services at ₹10,000 to ₹35,000 a month, and many sell cold calling. Brand Bakery's AI telecaller calls only people who enquired, within a minute, at any hour you allow, and logs every call in your sheet. It is ₹50,000 to set up, then ₹22,500 a month.

The job: call every new enquiry, ask your questions, book the visit and follow up until the lead decides.

The same call, both ways

Act 03Honest limits

Where an agency still fits

An AI telecaller is fast and steady. It is not a closer for every deal, and we will tell you so on the call.

Keep these for

  • A one-off campaign to your existing customers that needs many people for a few weeks
  • Calls that need a person to judge, persuade or negotiate in the moment
  • Work on the ground, such as field visits or document pickup

Act 04How it fits

The setup we recommend

Let the AI telecaller take the first call on every new enquiry within a minute, ask your qualifying questions, book the visit and run the follow-ups. Keep people, yours or an agency's, for the conversations that need judgment, with the notes already in front of them.

Act 05Within the rules

Rules it never breaks

It calls people who asked to hear from you, says it is an AI and follows TRAI's rules for commercial calls.

How calls and data are handled: Data safety

On every call it

  • Calls only people who asked to be contacted: a form, a portal enquiry, a missed call or a callback request.
  • Tells callers it is an AI assistant at the start of every call.
  • Announces at the start of every call that it is recorded.
  • Follows TRAI commercial communication rules, with DLT registration in place before any outbound messaging.
  • Handles personal data under the DPDP Act, with a data processing agreement in your contract.

Act 06Sample call

Hear it on the phone

A staged call with synthetic voices and an invented business, run by the same rules a real one is.

Act 07Questions

Before you decide

How much does a telecalling agency cost in India?

Sellers on IndiaMART list telecalling services at ₹10,000 to ₹35,000 a month, and some charge by the hour. Prices depend on hours, the number of callers and what is included, so ask for a written scope before you compare.

Is an AI telecaller better than outsourcing telecalling?

For calling new enquiries fast, yes: it calls within a minute, at any hour you allow, and logs every call. For campaigns that need many people or calls that need judgment, an agency or your own team still fits. Many businesses use both.

Can the AI telecaller make cold calls?

No. It calls only people who asked to be contacted: a portal enquiry, an ad form, a website form or a missed call. Cold lists are out of scope.

Will the people it calls know it is an AI?

Yes. Every call starts with the AI saying it is an AI assistant, and a notice that the call is recorded.

What does the AI telecaller cost?

₹50,000 to set up, then ₹22,500 a month. If you only need incoming calls answered, the AI Receptionist is ₹10,000 a month after a ₹30,000 setup, with 1,000 minutes.
