xAI launched Grok Voice Agent Builder, a no-code tool that lets users create and deploy a voice agent in under two minutes from the browser.
What it promises
- Human-like voice calls with sub-second latency
- Support for 25+ languages
- Pricing of $0.05/min
- A free phone number or bring-your-own-number setup
Product angle
The builder is positioned as a practical voice-AI workflow for support, sales, lead qualification, reception, and scheduling. xAI says it was trained on hard real-world calls and can handle interruptions, background noise, accents, and mid-call actions like checking records or policy before resolving the request.
