Before you decide
SiteGPT vs Vapi: buying questions
How should I compare SiteGPT and Vapi pricing?
SiteGPT: Subscription by chatbot, source-page, team-member and message allowances. Starter includes 1 bot and 1,000 pages; Growth 2 bots and 10,000 pages; Scale 3 bots and 50,000 pages. Extra 5,000-message packs cost $59/month. Refresh schedules and integrations vary by tier. Vapi: Usage-based hosting plus provider costs for transcription, language models, speech and telephony. Bring-your-own keys move provider billing to your own account. Includes 10 concurrent calls; extra lines cost $10/month each. Scale uses a quoted platform fee and committed volume under an annual contract. Ask both vendors to quote the same expected workload, required channels, and implementation scope. Include required subscriptions and usage charges before comparing the total; the listed starting prices alone may cover different work.
Can SiteGPT and Vapi use my existing knowledge?
The recorded sources for SiteGPT include website pages; sitemaps; PDFs/files; Q&A. For Vapi, they include prompts; custom functions; documents; external APIs. Ask each vendor to demonstrate ingestion or live access for the exact system you use, with permissions and refresh behavior. A source missing from this directory is not proof that a vendor cannot support it.
What should I test in a SiteGPT vs Vapi pilot?
Use the same sample of real support requests, approved knowledge, and escalation rules in both pilots. How much can be configured without custom code? What testing and observability are included? Can the agent use your own APIs and business logic? Record answer quality, completed tasks, human handoffs, and total cost in the buyer worksheet. Check these specific cautions before launch: SiteGPT: Message and page caps apply; annual toggle can make headline prices differ from monthly billing. Vapi: Total per-minute cost includes selected STT, LLM, TTS and telephony providers; more engineering is required than turnkey tools.
