Official FAQ
- What's included in Build on Vexa?
- The base rate covers bot infrastructure: audio capture, webhooks, and 12 months of audio storage across Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and Zoom. Add real-time transcription for +$0.20/hr, so $0.50/hr all-in.
- Which plan is right for me?
- Two tracks, by the door you come in through. Individual ($12/seat/mo) is for one person and their agents — MCP to connect agents, one concurrent bot, unlimited meetings. Build on Vexa ($0.30/bot-hr) is for products built on the API — pay as you go, unlimited bots. Self-host for free from GitHub if you need full data control, and talk to us for Enterprise.
- How does the free credit work?
- Every new account gets $2 in free bot credit — no credit card required. That covers approximately 6 hours of bot time at $0.30/hr. All features are available: audio capture, transcription, real-time data, and full API access. Top-ups start at $10; automatic top-ups follow the same minimum.
- Can I self-host Vexa?
- Yes. Vexa is Apache 2.0 licensed and fully self-hostable. Deploy with Docker Compose, Kubernetes, or OpenShift on your own infrastructure with complete data sovereignty.
