The problem it solves

Calling every lead or customer yourself to deliver the same message over and over eats up hours you could spend on higher-value work. Hiring someone just to make routine calls isn't always practical either. This places the call and lets an AI agent handle the conversation for you.

Who it fits

Sales and support teams that need to make routine outbound phone calls at scale.

How it works

  1. You trigger the call manually with the phone number to reach
  2. The system connects to an AI voice agent
  3. The agent places the call through Twilio and speaks in real time
  4. The call is connected and the conversation happens live
What you get

Outbound calls placed without lifting a phone

You trigger a live AI voice agent that calls a phone number and holds a real spoken conversation for you.

What you get

A completed outbound phone call handled entirely by an AI voice agent.

What you need

An Ultravox account and a Twilio account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
