AI Vendor Pricing Transparency Index 2026
We checked 21 AI vendors serving the GCC and Egypt: only 3 publish full prices, 5 publish a partial model, 13 are quote-only. Entry prices, trials and setup fees in one table.
3 of 21 AI vendors serving the GCC and Egypt publish full entry prices on their own site (2 of 11 regional vendors, 1 of 10 international ones). 5 publish a partial model, such as tiers, credits or add-on rates, without a headline price, and 13 publish nothing and route buyers to a demo or a sales call. 7 of the quote-only vendors are visible only through third-party hourly bands on Clutch, which we do not count as publishing.

Methodology
- Full means the vendor publishes entry prices in currency on its own website. Partial means it publishes a pricing model, tier structure, free tier or add-on rate but not the core entry price. None means quote, demo or contact-sales only.
- Third-party hourly bands and project minimums (for example Clutch profiles) are shown for context only and never count as publishing. A vendor with only a Clutch band is rated None.
- Sources and dates: rows marked Live-checked were verified on the vendor's own pricing page on 2026-09-03. All other rows come from Nano AI's September 2026 competitor research and carry the same index date. Nano AI's own row is first-party.
- Scope: 21 vendors that sell conversational AI, voice AI or AI implementation to businesses in the GCC and Egypt: 11 headquartered in the region and 10 international vendors that actively sell into it. Unknown values are shown as "—", never estimated.
- The index is refreshed quarterly. Vendors who believe a row is wrong can send the public page that shows their price to hello@nano-ai.net and we will correct it in the next update, or sooner when the evidence is clear.
Why it matters
Buyers in Riyadh, Dubai or Cairo cannot compare 13 of these 21 vendors without booking a call, so the first price they see is usually the one they get. Publishing prices lets a buyer set a budget before a sales conversation and holds every vendor to the same number. Nano AI publishes every SKU on its pricing page, and the comparison guides show how that lines up against the two regional vendors that also publish theirs.
Frequently asked questions
3 of the 21 vendors in this index publish full entry prices on their own site (Nano AI, Mando AI and Neoteric). 5 publish a partial model such as tiers or credits, and 13 publish nothing and require a demo or sales call.
A vendor counts as Full only when entry prices in currency appear on its own website. Tier names, credit counts, free tiers or add-on rates without a headline price count as Partial. Hourly bands on third-party directories such as Clutch do not count at all.
Among vendors that publish prices, Mando AI's paid plans start at $16/month (Light) after a free tier, and Nano AI's Arabic voice agent starts at $149/month per line with $0 setup; Nano AI's WhatsApp agent starts at $199/month plus a $490 setup fee. The plans differ in scope, so compare what each includes before choosing on price.
