Migration guide

Switch from Bland AI to Topcalls

Last verified · by Topcalls Team

Switching in a nutshell

You do not have to switch overnight. Keep your current calls live, point a slice of fresh leads at Topcalls for a week or two, and compare cost per booked meeting on the same kind of lead. When the all-inclusive $0.35/min number wins, move the rest of your volume over. A typical parallel run takes one to two weeks.

What you stop paying for when you leave Bland AI

  • A separate per-minute voice bill
  • A telephony provider invoice
  • A transcription or recording-storage add-on
  • The engineering time spent keeping the call orchestration running

How to switch, step by step

  1. 1

    Export your contacts

    Pull your lead lists out of your current setup as CSV, with name, phone, and any custom fields your scripts use.

  2. 2

    Port or provision numbers

    Bring your existing numbers across, or get new ones with local presence in the area codes you call most.

  3. 3

    Recreate each script as an agent

    Turn every calling flow into a Topcalls agent: its identity, goal, objection handling, and the fields it should collect on the call.

  4. 4

    Connect your CRM and tools

    Link Topcalls to your CRM and 5,000+ apps so dispositions and booked meetings sync back without manual export.

  5. 5

    Import a test list

    Load a small slice of leads and dry-run the agent so you can hear it before you scale.

  6. 6

    Set your compliance windows

    Configure calling hours, DNC scrubbing, and consent rules so the campaign runs inside TCPA and local limits.

  7. 7

    Run a parallel trial

    Keep your current calls running and point a portion of fresh leads at Topcalls for a week.

  8. 8

    Compare the numbers

    Put connect rate, conversation length, booked meetings, and cost per outcome side by side.

  9. 9

    Cut over

    Once the trial wins on cost per booked meeting, move the rest of your volume to Topcalls and retire the old stack.

Frequently asked questions

Will I lose my phone numbers if I switch?
No. You can port your existing numbers to Topcalls, or run new ones with local presence and move at your own pace.
How long does migrating take?
Most teams run a one to two week parallel trial, then cut over. There is no hard switch date you have to hit.
Do I need an engineer to migrate?
No. Scripts become Topcalls agents inside the product and lead lists import from CSV. A developer is optional, not required.
What does Topcalls cost after I switch?
$0.35/min, all-inclusive. That single rate covers the voice model, telephony, recording, transcription, and analytics, with no per-seat fees.
