✓Simulation + optimization workspaces are genuine differentiators vs. ship-and-pray competitors
✓Strong European enterprise customer base (Decathlon, Swiss Life, HUK-COBURG)
✓EU data residency and compliance posture clears procurement in regulated industries
✓Native CCaaS integrations remove a lot of voice-stack integration pain
✓Non-engineer authoring keeps the iteration loop fast for CX ops teams

✗Enterprise-only — no self-serve tier, no transparent pricing
✗Heavier installation footprint than consumer-grade chat vendors
✗More European-centric brand recognition than US-focused competitors today
✗Voice-first orientation means chat-only deployments may not get the same depth
✗ROI strongest at high call volumes — small contact centers may not justify the spend

✓True self-hosting clears compliance bars that exclude closed-cloud voice vendors
✓MCP-native design composes with any existing agent runtime without prompt rewrites
✓Every layer (STT, LLM, TTS, telephony) is swappable — no vendor lock-in
✓Free open-source tier means you can prototype without procurement

✗You take on the operational burden of running Docker, secrets, telephony, monitoring
✗Visual editor less polished than closed competitors like Vapi or Retell
✗Smaller community than the managed cloud vendors — fewer answers when stuck
✗Per-minute STT/TTS/LLM/telephony costs still apply and dominate at scale
