Out of curiosity, how much does this setup cost you to run per month? My main aversion to Twilio is their awkward pricing scheme.

Hardly anything.

SIP calls through Twilio are $1/month plus $0.004 per minute for incoming calls. The spam scoring APIs are "costly", and maybe cost $0.01 combined per lookup.

Google Speech Recognition and TTS are virtually free for my use case. Asterisk can easily run on a $5/month VPS.
