Dial — Phone numbers for AI agents
Dial gives your agent a real phone number. Over a single OAuth-authenticated connection it can send and receive SMS, place AI-handled voice calls, provision numbers, and wait for inbound events like one-time codes — no Twilio account, API keys, or telephony glue required.
Connect once via OAuth (browser sign-in, no API key to paste), and the agent gets an account scoped to you. Outbound calls run asynchronously: place the call, block on the event, then pull the transcript.
