What does CallGrid charge for RTB?

The pricing page lists Static Campaigns at $199/month and Real-Time Bidding at $995/month, then metered usage. Local minutes start at $0.04, toll-free at $0.05. There is no setup fee. Usage is prepaid.

How does CallGrid bill a call?

On talk time, not pings. The homepage says buyers only pay for qualified calls when an AI voice agent screens first. That is not the same as billing from a live transcript of what was said.

Is transcription included?

No on the public list. Transcription starts at $0.04 per minute. Recording starts at $0.01 per minute. InboundX includes transcription in the per-minute price.

Does this page rank CallGrid?

No. It restates published fees and mechanics. It does not score auctions, uptime, or revenue.

What CallGrid publishes well

A live double-blind auction: buyers do not see each other, and the highest revenue per call wins, not the highest bid.

Talk-time billing, not pings. Prepaid usage, no setup fee, unlimited seats, and support on both plans.

AI agent qualification before routing, plus recording, transcripts, and keyword tagging. Five routing methods with failover.

03 — InboundX

How InboundX is set up

RTB is on the one plan, not a $995 tier. Transcription is in the $0.06, not $0.04/min extra.

Buyers answer in the browser. CallGrid's public pages do not describe browser answering.

A call is billed when spoken criteria qualify it. White-label is your subdomain, logo, colours, and email. CallGrid does not publish a white-label workspace.
