Why You Need a Phone Number
A phone number is the link between your callers and your AI assistant. Without one, your assistant has no way to answer incoming calls or place outbound calls for campaigns. There are two main ways to use a VozAgent number:- Forward your existing business line — Set up call forwarding from your current business phone so that callers still dial the number they already know, but your AI assistant answers. See Forwarding Calls to VozAgent for step-by-step instructions.
- Use it as a direct line — Give out your VozAgent number directly as your business phone number. Your AI assistant answers all incoming calls automatically, 24/7.
