Pricing

Plans as listed on each vendor's site when we last checked. Confirm before you buy.

Attribute	Ada	Hyperbound
Plans	CustomOur pick Custom Businesses with enough volume to justify an enterprise contract.	Free Free Trying AI role-play with a few reps.
		PracticeOur pick Custom per user Teams that want reps rehearsing on AI.
		Perform Custom per user Teams that also want real calls scored and coached.
Which plan to pick	There's only a custom quote. Ask whether you'll be charged per conversation or per resolution, since per-conversation pricing charges you even when the agent doesn't solve the problem.	Run the free role-plays with two or three reps first. If they keep using them, Practice covers rehearsal; only pay for Perform if you do not already have Gong or another call recorder.
