Honest recommendations for each option
Choose Vapi if you need a proof-of-concept in hours, have simple use cases that fit their templates, and don't mind platform lock-in.
Choose P0STMAN when you need custom workflows, complex integrations, full code ownership, or business-critical AI that can't be locked into a platform.

One-time $5K build vs $6K+/year platform fees. After 12 months, you've saved money and own your infrastructure. Pay only for API usage, not platform fees.

Reduction in Admin Time
From Kickoff to Launch
Starting Investment
Initial setup takes 6 days vs Vapi's same-day launch. However, most businesses find Vapi's templates don't fit their needs and require extensive customization anyway. Our 6-day custom build often delivers faster than iterating on Vapi's constraints.
Yes. We can rebuild your Vapi workflows as custom code you own. Most migrations take 6-10 days. You'll gain code ownership, eliminate monthly platform fees, and unlock customization capabilities Vapi doesn't offer.
You own the code, so you can modify it yourself or hire any developer. We offer monthly retainers ($2K/month) for ongoing updates, or pay-as-you-go for specific enhancements. No forced platform fees.
