Is there a free Kannada AI voice agent?
Yes, within limits. Outpero gives 50 free credits at signup with no card. At 1 credit to ₹1, that is about 10 connected minutes on Standard or roughly 7 on Premium, enough to test a Kannada AI voice agent and run a small pilot. After that it is prepaid pay-per-use. Free Kannada text-to-voice tools are a different product.
What the 50 free credits buy
Billing is on connected talk time only, so the credits go on real conversation minutes. Fifty credits cover ten minutes at ₹5 on Standard, or about seven at ₹6.8 on Premium. Unanswered calls are not billed, and credits never expire, so nothing is lost if the pilot waits a week.
A pilot that fits in ten minutes
- 01Sign up at app.outpero.com and choose Kannada as the opening language.
- 02Write a short brief: your business, timings, fees and what the agent must never promise.
- 03Call the agent yourself with a Kanglish line such as 'ನಿಮ್ಮ fees ಎಷ್ಟು, ನಾಳೆ ಬೆಳಿಗ್ಗೆ ಹನ್ನೊಂದು ಗಂಟೆಗೆ ಬರಬಹುದಾ?' meaning 'What is your fee, can I come tomorrow at eleven in the morning?'
- 04Read the transcript for the fee, the time and your name, and listen to the recording.
- 05Ask a colleague from another part of Karnataka to repeat the call before spending more.
Free Kannada voice tools are a different thing
Searches such as free ai voice kannada and Kannada text to voice ai free usually lead to voice generators. They turn written text into audio for videos or announcements. They cannot dial a number, hear a reply or book a visit, which is what a voice bot or AI calling agent does. For one fixed message to a list, a voice broadcast is the closer match.
Other free routes and their catches
ElevenLabs Agents offers a self-serve account with 15 free minutes, and its newest models list Kannada. You configure the agent and connect a phone number yourself, and its pages do not publish India numbers or DLT registration. That suits a developer experimenting more than a clinic owner in Hubballi who wants a working Kannada caller.
What free does not cover
- —A dedicated +91 business number, at ₹649 a month including one channel, needed for some modes such as instant lead calling.
- —Large campaigns: 50 credits is a test, not a month of calling.
- —Any judgement about your whole audience: ten minutes tells you about one or two speakers.

Follow-up questions
Do I need a card to try the Kannada agent?
+
No. The 50 free credits are given at signup without a card. You add money later by topping up credits when you are ready to run a real pilot, and prices exclude 18% GST.
Is the free trial limited to certain languages?
+
Credits are not tied to a language. The per-minute price is the same in all seven live languages, so you can try Kannada, then the same script in Hindi or English, from one balance.
