Plans
| Plan | Price | Included |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0/mo | 5,000 requests per month |
The Free plan at $0/mo covers 5,000 requests per month, which is where an agent would start.
Can an agent buy this on its own?
A price is only half the question. The other half is whether software can get from landing on the site to making a paid call without a person, which is what the AgentReady measures under adopt.
For Parallel, it can create an account itself; no sales call stands in the way; API credentials can be created over the API.
Against that, the signup flow assumes a human at a browser. Each of those is a point where an unattended run stops and waits for a human.
That works out to 90/100 on adopt, against 92/100 overall.
