Create voice agent pricing calculator by Nikhil. R
Prompt
Create a comprehensive voice AI pricing calculator website with the following features: **Main Calculator Section:** - Header: "VOICE AGENT PRICING CALCULATOR" with subtitle "Calculate the total cost and latency of running voice AI conversations" - Three dropdown selectors for: - LLM Provider (GPT-4o OpenAI, Claude, etc.) - STT Provider (GPT-4o-Transcribe OpenAI, Deepgram, etc.) - TTS Provider (Sonic English Cartesia, ElevenLabs, etc.) **Input Parameters Panel:** - Conversation Length (15 min default) - Agents Per vCPU (1 default) - Words Per Minute (100 default) - Tokens Per Word (1.3 default) - Characters/Word (6 default) - Turns Per Minute (4 default) - LLM Speech Ratio (0.5 default) **Current Pricing Display:** - Transcription Cost/Min: $0.006 - LLM Input Token Cost: $0.0000025000 - LLM Output Token Cost: $0.0000100000 - Voice Cost/Character: $0.000038 - vCPU Cost/Minute: $0.00007083333 **Results Section:** - Large total cost display: "$0.4205" - Cost per minute: "$0.0280" - Warning: "Final prices might be higher!" - Breakdown pie chart showing: Transcription ($0.0900), LLM ($0.1584), Voice ($0.1710), Hosting ($0.0011) - Token counts: Input Tokens (59,475), Output Tokens (975) - Export CSV and social share buttons Make it responsive, modern design with clean typography and intuitive UX. Add a comprehensive latency breakdown section to the voice AI calculator: **Latency Visualization:** - Total Voice-to-Voice Latency: 993ms with color-coded performance indicator - Fast (<800ms) - Green - Acceptable (800-1000ms) - Yellow - Slow (>1000ms) - Red **Three-Stage Breakdown with Progress Bars:** **Input Path (114ms):** - Mic Input: 40ms - Opus Encoding: 21ms - Network Transit: 10ms - Packet Handling: 2ms - Jitter Buffer: 40ms - Opus Decoding: 1ms **AI Processing (790ms):** - Transcription & Endpointing: 300ms - LLM Inference: 350ms - Sentence Aggregation: 20ms - Text-to-Speech: 120ms **Output Path (89ms):** - Opus Encoding: 21ms - Packet Handling: 2ms - Network Transit: 10ms - Jitter Buffer: 40ms - Opus Decoding: 1ms - Speaker Output: 15ms Include explanatory text about voice-to-voice latency and its importance for conversational AI. Add comprehensive formula documentation explaining all calculations: **FORMULA DOCUMENTATION Section:** **Cost Formulas:** - LLM Input Tokens: (words_per_min * tokens_per_word / turns_per_min) * (turns_per_min * convo_length) * (turns_per_min * convo_length + 1) / 2 - LLM Output Tokens: words_per_min * tokens_per_word * llm_speech_ratio * convo_length - Transcription Cost: transcription_cost_per_min * convo_length - LLM Cost: (input_tokens * input_cost) + (output_tokens * output_cost) - Voice Cost: voice_cost * words_per_min * chars_per_word * (1 - llm_speech_ratio) * convo_length - Hosting Cost: (vcpu_cost * convo_length) / agents_per_vcpu - Total Cost: transcription_cost + llm_cost + voice_cost + hosting_cost **Latency Formula:** Total Voice-to-Voice Latency = mic_input + opus_encoding + network + packet_handling + jitter_buffer + opus_decoding + transcription + llm_ttfb + sentence_aggregation + tts_ttfb + opus_encoding + packet_handling + network + jitter_buffer + opus_decoding + speaker_output Include clear explanations for each formula component and real-time calculation updates.

<h2>FORMULA DOCUMENTATION</h2>
<p style="color: var(--text-secondary);">The calculations are based on the parameters you provide and the pricing models of the selected providers. Calculations update in real-time.</p>
<h3>Cost Formulas</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>LLM Input Tokens:</strong> Cumulatively counts tokens sent to the LLM, assuming conversation history is included in each turn.
<div class="formula-block">(words_per_min * tokens_per_word / turns_per_min) * (total_turns) * (total_turns + 1) / 2</div>
</li>
<li><strong>LLM Output Tokens:</strong> Total tokens generated by the LLM.
<div class="formula-block">words_per_min * tokens_per_word * llm_speech_ratio * convo_length</div>
</li>
<li><strong>Transcription Cost:</strong> Based on the total user speaking duration.
<div class="formula-block">transcription_cost_per_min * convo_length * (1 - llm_speech_ratio)</div>
</li>
<li><strong>LLM Cost:</strong> Sum of input and output token costs.
<div class="formula-block">(input_tokens * input_cost) + (output_tokens * output_cost)</div>
</li>
<li><strong>Voice (TTS) Cost:</strong> Cost to generate the agent's voice.
<div class="formula-block">voice_cost_per_char * words_per_min * chars_per_word * llm_speech_ratio * convo_length</div>
</li>
<li><strong>Hosting Cost:</strong> vCPU cost adjusted for the number of concurrent agents.
<div class="formula-block">(vcpu_cost_per_min * convo_length) / agents_per_vcpu</div>
</li>
<li><strong>Total Cost:</strong>
<div class="formula-block">transcription_cost + llm_cost + voice_cost + hosting_cost</div>
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Latency Formula</h3>
<p style="margin-top: 0.5rem">Total latency is the sum of delays across the entire voice pipeline, from microphone to speaker.</p>
<div class="formula-block">Total Latency = Input Path + AI Processing + Output Path</div>
<ul>
<li><strong>Input Path:</strong> Time to capture, encode, and transmit user audio to the server.</li>
<li><strong>AI Processing:</strong> Time for STT, LLM, and TTS models to process the input and generate a response. This part is most affected by your provider choices.</li>
<li><strong>Output Path:</strong> Time to encode, transmit, and play back the AI's audio response to the user.</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>Why Voice-to-Voice Latency Matters:</strong> For natural conversations, latency should be under 1000ms. Higher latency causes awkward pauses, poor user experience, and conversation flow disruption. Critical applications require optimization for real-time interaction.</p>

This Voice AI Pricing Calculator includes all the requested features:
1. **Main Calculator Section** with dropdown providers and input parameters
2. **Results Display** showing total cost ($0.4205), cost per minute ($0.0280), token counts (59,475 input, 975 output)
3. **Interactive Pie Chart** visualizing the cost breakdown using Chart.js
4. **Latency Visualization** with 993ms total latency (yellow indicator) and detailed breakdown across input path, AI processing, and output path
5. **Formula Documentation** section explaining all cost and latency calculations
6. **Export and Share** buttons
7. **Responsive Design** that works on all device sizes
The page uses a modern purple/blue color scheme with card-based organization, clear typography, and visual indicators to create an intuitive user experience. The pie chart visually represents the cost components, while the progress bars show the latency distribution.Drag to resize

Voice-to-voice latency measures the time from when you stop speaking to when the AI starts responding.
Lower latency creates more natural conversations. Under 800ms feels instantaneous,
800-1000ms is acceptable, and over 1000ms feels sluggish.

<p><strong>LLM Speech Ratio:</strong> Percentage of conversation where AI is speaking (0.5 = 50% AI, 50% human)</p>
<p><strong>Tokens Per Word:</strong> Average number of tokens per word (varies by language and tokenizer)</p>
<p><strong>Turns Per Minute:</strong> Number of speaking exchanges between human and AI per minute</p>
<p><strong>TTFB:</strong> Time To First Byte - latency before the first response data arrives</p>
<p><strong>Jitter Buffer:</strong> Audio buffer to smooth out network timing variations</p>
