Reporting & monitoring

### What changes in your day.

Platform pricing is only one part of a call operation. A useful cost review shows what was used and what it cost, so your team can understand the bill as activity grows.

01

#### Look beyond the plan fee

Keep phone-number rental and usage separate from the platform subscription. The public pricing page explains the standard number, minute, recording, and text rates.

02

#### Review additional call checks

Caller checks can create their own usage charges. The account's usage records let you inspect these alongside other billed activity.

03

#### Connect cost reviews to operating decisions

Use actual usage when choosing a plan or reviewing a campaign. Higher plans have lower published usage rates, but the right plan depends on your account needs and volume.
