Bland AI

Enterprise voice AI for high-volume phone calls
Reviewed by the the30top research team 路 Last reviewed 2026-10-27
Overview
Bland builds AI voice agents for enterprise phone operations and prices them as one flat rate per minute, with no token charges or provider pass-throughs. It is a San Francisco company founded in 2023 that has raised $65M, including a $40M Series B led by Emergence Capital. The limitation is volume gating: the free Start plan caps outbound at 100 calls a day, and the best compliance paperwork sits behind the Enterprise tier and an NDA.
Our verdict
Bland is a solid option for volume-driven phone operations that value predictable per-minute pricing and a published compliance list. Smaller teams will hit the plan caps early.
Best for
Enterprise and mid-market teams running large outbound or inbound call volumes who want a single predictable rate.
Avoid if
You need a tiny pilot with no caps or want deep native CRM connectors out of the box.
