Getting your assistant a number
Numbers are provisioned from your assistant’s Contact Details in the Console — see Setting up channels for the full walkthrough. In short:- Verify your own phone number under Account → Contact Info (you’ll receive a 6-digit code by SMS).
- In your assistant’s Contact Details, choose Add phone, pick the country the number should be based in, and create it.
Phone numbers have a one-time setup cost and a small monthly fee, paid in
credits. The exact amounts are shown in the Console before you confirm.
Calling your assistant
Dial its number from your phone. Your assistant picks up and talks with you naturally — same voice, same memory, same colleague you know from chat. Calls to the assistant are for known contacts. If someone the assistant doesn’t know calls the number, they hear a short message directing them to the Console instead of reaching your assistant.Your assistant calling you (or others)
Ask your assistant to call you — “give me a call in 10 minutes” — and your phone rings. If you don’t pick up, it knows the call went unanswered and follows up over text instead of leaving you hanging. Your assistant can also make calls on your behalf: booking appointments, chasing suppliers, following up with clients. Just tell it who to call and what to accomplish, and it reports back when it’s done.What calls are like
- Natural voice. Your assistant speaks with the voice you chose — you can interrupt it mid-sentence and it adapts, just like a person.
- Concise by design. On the phone your assistant keeps its answers short and conversational rather than reading you essays.
- It can bring someone in. Your assistant can add a third person to a call when a human handoff is needed.
- It knows when to hang up. For quick calls it wraps up with a natural goodbye rather than lingering on the line.
- Calls are recorded. Recordings and transcripts are linked to the conversation — see Recordings & transcripts.
