6 Differences Between an API and a Ready Product
Bland AI is a voice API for developers. Adam is an autonomous sales teammate ready to work immediately.
Developer API vs Ready Product
Bland AI is a developer tool. You need an engineering team to build, test, and maintain your voice agent from scratch. Adam deploys in 5 minutes with zero code.
$299+/mo + $0.09/min vs $25/mo
Bland AI charges $299-499/month base plus $0.09 per minute of call time. Then add $8,000-15,000/month for the engineering team you need to build and maintain the system. Adam starts at $25/month, all-inclusive.
Voice Only vs Multi-Channel
Bland AI is a voice-only API. It cannot send an email, message on LinkedIn, or text on WhatsApp. Adam autonomously executes across voice, email, LinkedIn, SMS, and WhatsApp.
800ms Latency vs Natural Conversation
Bland AI users report 800ms+ latency on calls, creating awkward pauses that prospects notice. Adam converses naturally with human-like response times.
Build Everything vs All-Included
With Bland AI, you build call flows, integrations, analytics, and escalation logic from scratch. Adam includes CRM sync, analytics, meeting booking, lead qualification, and A/B testing out of the box.
Single Channel vs 3-in-1 Platform
Bland AI is a voice-only API. Teammates includes Adam (Sales), Raya (Customer Service), and Sara (HR Interviewer) — three specialized AI teammates in one platform.
The Bottom Line
Bland AI gives you Lego bricks for $299+/mo + engineering salaries. Adam is the built house for $25/mo.
