Competitor prices come from their own public price lists, verified 6 August 2026. Vokaro has been removed from the table: in July 2026 it was listed here at ~CZK 2,000–2,900, but as of 6 August 2026 neither vokaro.cz nor vokaro.com resolves, so the service cannot be verified. Always check prices with the vendor before deciding.
Competitor prices come from public price lists as of 16 July 2026. Opora AI is one of the compared solutions — below we also write when you should not pick us.
- Jarabot — self-serve all-in-one (chat, mail, voice): from CZK 420/mo per channel, full bundle from ~CZK 1,450/mo, one-time setup per their price list from CZK 50,000. Strength: channel breadth at a low fee. Expect the tuning to be on you.
- FAYN voicebot — a voice bot from a telecom operator: CZK 10,000 activation + 1,299/mo + 2.99 per minute. Strength: a simple voice line with your own operator. Voice only; the per-minute rate grows with volume.
- Daktela AI Voicebot — contact-center class: activation from CZK 7,500 + from CZK 10,000/mo. Strength: integration into a full contact centre. For a salon or a small garage it's overkill — it targets bigger operations.
- AI Recepce (airecepce.cz) — an announced self-serve receptionist for 100 industries at CZK 1,200/mo; at the time of writing in pre-registration with launch announced for summer 2026. No live operation to evaluate yet — we are watching.
- KraftunAI — a voice AI receptionist, ~CZK 2,000–2,900/mo (exchange-rate dependent, 750 minutes), free setup. Strength: fast start with no configuration. Voice only, self-serve.
- Opora AI — a done-for-you AI receptionist built on 3+ agents with monthly care: messages (Instagram, WhatsApp, SMS), a voice line as an add-on (+CZK 500 to 1,500/mo., the AI picks up a missed call in Czech), dormant-client win-back, no-show reminders, reviews; the owner approves every message in Telegram. From CZK 2,900/mo (first 5 businesses; normally 4,900) + setup from CZK 9,990. No per-minute rates; detailed pricing here.
How to read the differences: software vs. service
The price gap is no accident — these are two different product classes. A self-serve bot is a tool: you pay little and do a lot (teach it your price list, watch its replies, rewrite its copy). A done-for-you system is a service: you pay more and do almost nothing — the vendor configures, tunes based on real conversations and carries responsibility. Always ask three things: who tunes the bot, what it costs at your realistic volume (minutes!), and who answers for what the bot writes to a client.
When to pick what — honestly
- Enjoy the tech and have time? Take a self-serve tool for a few hundred crowns. With patience you'll get a decent result — and you don't need us.
- Just need a simple voice line? A telecom voicebot or KraftunAI is the fastest path. Watch the per-minute rates.
- Run a contact centre with dozens of calls a day? The contact-center class (Daktela) is built exactly for that.
- Want communication to "just happen" — including winning back lost clients — without touching any of it? That's our lane: a system of 3+ agents, monthly care, your approval on every message, AI Act compliance included. And a free audit with a guarantee before you sign: if we don't find at least CZK 20,000 in your database, we part ways.
The safest first step: a number from your own database
Before picking any solution, find out how much money is actually asleep in your business. A free audit in minutes, no phone numbers, no strings — the result is useful in a negotiation with anyone in this comparison.

Why include yourselves in the comparison?
Because our customer will ask this question anyway. We'd rather answer it openly — including the cases where we are the pricier or unnecessary choice.
What separates a cheap bot from a done-for-you system?
A bot is software you operate. A done-for-you system is a service with the vendor's care and accountability. Details in the pricing breakdown.
What about the new AI Act rules?
From 2 August 2026 every bot must disclose it is AI. Whoever you pick, go through the checklist — the operator's responsibility is yours.
