# Mitra vs CallForMe: a calling plan or pay per call

> Mitra (getmitra.com) makes and answers calls from your own number, with an MCP connector for ChatGPT, Claude and Grok, on plans from 30 a month for 5 call hours. CallForMe (callforme.tel) places calls to businesses for your agent at $1 per answered call, no subscription. For a few calls a month, pay per call costs less; for hours of calls, a plan can.

**Say to your agent:** "Call 3 plumbers near 75024 and ask what they charge to replace a water heater and their first opening. Put it in a table."

## What Mitra is

Mitra is a phone assistant from [getmitra.com](https://www.getmitra.com) that makes and answers calls for you. Its [MCP page](https://www.getmitra.com/mcp) says you can "connect Mitra to your AI app to make and answer calls from your number," at `https://mcp.getmitra.com/mcp`, and that the connector comes with every plan, including its trial. Its examples include calling businesses (a restaurant, plumbers, a dentist, an auto shop) and calling a client to book a showing.

## FAQ

### Which is cheaper?

It depends on how much you call. Mitra Pro lists 30 a month (its page shows no currency symbol) with 5 call hours. CallForMe has no monthly fee: ten 2-minute answered calls cost $10, and a month with no calls costs nothing. If you use most of 5 hours every month, Mitra costs less.

### Which one calls from my own number?

Mitra. Its MCP page says it makes and answers calls from your number. CallForMe calls from its own number, (469) 966-0062, and a business that calls back reaches a line that takes the message and passes it to your agent.

### Which one answers my phone?

Mitra answers calls too, and your agent can ask what happened on them. CallForMe only makes calls.

### Do they both work with ChatGPT and Claude?

Yes. Mitra's MCP connector lists ChatGPT, Claude and Grok and signs in with OAuth to your Mitra account. CallForMe is in ChatGPT's plugin directory and connects in Claude, Codex and other agents with one click that asks for nothing.
