Short answer

How can I make my AI call someone?

You tell your AI to call a specific number, and it uses the CloudTalk connection to dial the number for you. This happens right inside your chat window. You'll see the specific steps and outcomes below.

What happens when you call

The AI handles the dialing so you can stay in the chat.

FAQ

How the calling task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI talk for me during the call?

    No. The AI only triggers the outbound connection. You handle the actual conversation once the call is active.

  • 02

    Does the AI record the call automatically?

    The AI can only trigger the call itself. Recording settings depend on your specific CloudTalk account configuration.

  • 03

    Can I call multiple people at once?

    No. You must prompt the AI to make calls to specific numbers one at a time.

  • 04

    What happens if the number is wrong?

    The AI will report that the call failed. It cannot fix a typo in a phone number without you telling it the correct one.

  • 05

    Can the AI change my CloudTalk settings?

    No. The AI only has the ability to initiate calls through the provided tool.
