Short answer

How can I make my AI call someone?

You give your agent a text command to call a specific person. The AI uses Thoughtly to set up the contact and start the call with a chosen voice. You'll see the specific outcomes and steps below.

The results of your commands

What happens after you ask

Your agent handles the technical parts of the call request.

OUTBOUND

Live phone calls

The AI triggers a call to a contact using a specific voice. You get a live person on the line.

CONTACTS

New contact records

The AI adds the person to your list. This ensures the call has the right details.

PERSONAS

Voice selection

The AI picks a specific persona for the call. This changes how the agent sounds to the recipient.

HUMAN

Manual intervention

If the call fails or the persona isn't right, you'll need to step in. The AI won't fix a wrong number.

The workflow

What your AI does when a call is requested.

The AI manages the connection between your text and the phone line.

  1. Identify the recipient

    Your agent looks at your request to find the right person and prepares their details.

  2. Register the contact

  3. Start the dialer

    Once the contact is ready, the AI sends the command to begin the outbound connection.

    trigger_call
  4. Execute the call

    The system connects the voice persona to the phone line to make the call live.
