KallyAI calls, waits through the entire hold time (however long), checks your status, and reports back. Cost: a few dollars regardless if hold is 30 minutes or 2 hours.
Human VAsHow Human VAs Handles It
A human VA waiting 90 minutes on hold at $25/hour costs $37.50 just for hold time, plus conversation time. Total: $40-50+.

Frequently Asked Questions
How expensive are human VAs for government calls?
Very. Government hold times of 60-90 minutes mean human VAs bill $25-40+ just for waiting. KallyAI's flat rate makes it 5-10x cheaper for typical government calls.
Can KallyAI handle complex government situations?
KallyAI handles standard government inquiries well - status checks, appointment scheduling, basic questions. For complex cases requiring interpretation or appeals, human judgment may help.
When should I use a human VA for government calls?
Human VAs are better for complex situations - disability appeals, immigration issues, or cases requiring multiple follow-up calls and documentation management over time.
Is it worth paying someone to wait on hold for me?
If you value your time at $25+/hour, paying similar rates for someone else to wait doesn't save money. KallyAI costs a fraction of that amount regardless of hold time.
