Bring Your Own Keys#
If you bring your own provider keys, that component costs nothing on Edesy and you pay the provider directly. The platform fee drops to ₹1/min with your own speech-to-text, language model and text-to-speech keys, or ₹1.20/min with one or two of them. See Credits System.
Example: Cost per Minute#
| Setup | Pay As You Go | Max | Ultra |

| Standard providers (Deepgram + Google voice + GPT-4o mini) | ₹6.00 | ₹4.50 | ₹4.00 |
| Standard STT + ElevenLabs voice | ₹6 + ₹3.00 = ₹9.00 | ₹4.50 + ₹2.40 = ₹6.90 | ₹4 + ₹2.10 = ₹6.10 |
| Standard STT + Cartesia voice | ₹6 + ₹2.00 = ₹8.00 | ₹4.50 + ₹1.60 = ₹6.10 | ₹4 + ₹1.40 = ₹5.40 |
Per minute, before telephony and 18% GST.
Cost Optimization Tips#
- Start with the included providers; they cover most use cases in English and Indian languages.
- Add a premium voice only to agents where voice quality changes the outcome, such as sales calls.
- Move to Max or Ultra once you use premium add-ons at volume: the add-on discount applies on top of the lower per-minute rate.
- At high volume with your own provider contracts, compare the BYOK platform fee with the bundled rate.
