Types Of Account
Aculab Cloud provides three levels of accounts: Developer, Production and Premium. You can upgrade from your initial Developer Account to a Production Account from the Account Upgrade page in the Cloud Console.
Developer Accounts
When you first sign up with Aculab Cloud, you get a Developer Account. This allows you to use it for development purposes, place and receive SIP and WebRTC calls, and write applications which interact with those calls.
A Developer Account comes with:
- Free inbound SIP and WebRTC calls
- Free outbound SIP and WebRTC calls
- Free speech recognition
- Free Text-To-Speech
- 1000 minutes per month of free platform time (speech recognition, TTS and WebRTC calls to/from a cloud IVR service depend on this)
- 1000 webrtc registration tokens per month, with a maximum TTL of 1 hour (WebRTC calls to/from a cloud IVR service and browser-to-browser require these)
- Quick start guides
- Access to all APIs, documentation and samples
- Support
Production Accounts (pre-paid)
A Production Account provides access to more features and should be used for deploying your finished applications. It is a paid-for account and must be kept in credit to maintain continuous use of Aculab Cloud.
A Production Account allows you to:
- Purchase incoming phone numbers
- Receive incoming phone calls
- Place outgoing phone calls
- Send and receive SMS and MMS messages
Premium Accounts (post-paid)
A Premium Account is much like a Production Account but, instead of pay as you go, you're invoiced for what you use. To request this, please contact us to find out more.
Note: Voice Biometrics is disabled by default. Please contact us if you'd like us to enable it on your account.
