Retell AI
Developer-first platform for building and running AI phone agents for call centers.
What the agent does
Retell voice agents answer and place real-time phone calls for sales and tier-one support (now also chat, email and SMS), so call centers can replace IVR menus; it powers 40M+ calls a month.
Business model
Usage-based voice-agent platform (YC; profitable on a $4.6M seed)
Lessons for builders
- Capital efficiency is a pitch: $60M+ ARR and profitable on $4.6M raised, with about 35 people.
- Developer-first, no-code deployment let thousands of businesses ship phone agents in days before big enterprise deals.
- Expanding from voice into chat, email and SMS turns a point tool into a pitch to replace the whole IVR and call-center stack.
