AI agent call center cost premium

April 4, 2026Shubham Saboo

Shubham Saboo argues AI voice agents are uneconomical, claiming $0.50 per minute is a 30x premium versus outsourced human call centers.

The cost is insane here.
$0.50 per minute. That’s $30 an hour.
An outsourced human call center worker costs about $0.017 a minute
You’re paying a 30x premium to talk to an AI Agent.
