@AI Evy Hi Retell team, I'm setting up a debt collection operation using Retell with Telnyx SIP trunking for outbound calls to Argentina. My use case: - 10 phone numbers rotating across contact lists - ~5,000 calls/month (growing to 20k+) - Average call duration: 42 seconds - I need to run 20 concurrent calls per number (200 total simultaneous) - The rotation logic is for retry attempts: each contact gets called up to 5 times from different numbers My question: What's the most cost-effective way to achieve 200 concurrent calls with number rotation? Specifically: 1. Can I use multiple workspaces under the same organization to distribute concurrency across numbers? 2. Is there a volume discount on concurrency slots for my use case? 3. Would an Enterprise plan make sense at my current volume (~$900/month, scaling to $3,000+)? I'd appreciate any guidance on the best architecture for this setup. Thanks,

Thanks for tagging me @m4te. I'll look through relevant sources and get back to you shortly.
### Answer Here's guidance for your debt collection setup with Telnyx SIP trunking: ## Concurrency Basics Concurrency applies to all simultaneous active voice calls across your entire organization, not per agent or per number. [(1) ]() [(2) ]() Pay-As-You-Go users start with a quota of 20 concurrent calls. [(1) ]() For 200 concurrent calls, you'll need to upgrade your concurrency limit through the Billing page in your dashboard. ## Telnyx CPS Limits With Telnyx, the default CPS (calls per second) is 1, with a maximum of 16, and updates are instant. [(2) ]() For custom telephony, the maximum CPS is calculated as your concurrency limit ÷ 20. So at 200 concurrency, your max CPS would be 10. ## Concurrency Burst Option If you experience traffic spikes beyond your base limit, you can enable Concurrency Burst which allows you to temporarily exceed your standard limit with a $0.10/min surcharge on burst calls. [(1) ]() Your burst limit would be the lower of 3× your limit (600) or your limit + 300 (500) , so 500 concurrent calls. ## Your Questions 1. **Multiple workspaces**: The documentation doesn't explicitly address distributing concurrency across multiple workspaces under one organization. You'd need to contact support for clarification on this architecture. 2. **Volume discounts**: The Enterprise plan includes volume-based discounts and custom call concurrency. [(3) ]() 3. **Enterprise plan**: At your projected volume of $3,000+/month, you'd qualify for the Enterprise plan, which is designed for companies with
large volumes (over $3k/month) . Benefits include volume-based discounts, custom call concurrency, and premium private Slack channel support. ## Recommendation For your use case scaling to 200 concurrent calls and $3,000+/month, the Enterprise plan would likely be the most cost-effective path. Contact sales at [) to discuss volume discounts and custom concurrency configuration.
