The short version

  • Only Voiceflow has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Voiceflow the free plan is limited to a single active workspace collaborator, so team collaboration requires upgrading to the paid Pro or Team tiers; Banana banana shut down its serverless GPU infrastructure on 31 March 2024 at noon PST and told customers to migrate to another provider by that time
