Platform · Inbound

Your AI answers real phone calls on a real number.

A customer dials your number; your agent picks up. Inbound routing matches the number to the agent automatically. India-ready via VoBiz, global via Twilio and Plivo.

The problem today

A missed call isn't a missed call — it's a missed customer. The phone rings while your receptionist is mid-walk-in, while your support desk is at lunch, on a Sunday afternoon when your scheduler is closed. Every dropped call goes somewhere else, and the lead, the booking, the support escalation goes with it. Standard fixes — voicemail, callback queues, IVR trees — all push the work onto a human who isn't there. Vocily AI picks up instead.

How Vocily AI handles it

  • Real number, real pickup

    Bring your number (VoBiz, Twilio, Plivo) — or get one. Your agent answers every call. No 'press 1 for sales' menus, no voicemail.

  • Number-to-agent routing

    Each inbound number maps to a specific agent. One workspace can host a sales line, a support line, and a billing line — different agents, different knowledge, all on the same workspace.

  • Business-hours enforcement

    Timezone-aware weekly schedule plus a holiday calendar. After-hours callers hear your configured closed message and a graceful disconnect — not a generic voicemail.

  • Max call duration cap

    Set a per-agent ceiling (1–30 minutes). Calls past the limit get a clean goodbye and disconnect. Predictable cost, no runaway sessions.

  • Inbound fallback message

    If the agent fails to initialise or hits an unexpected state, the caller hears the fallback line you configured — never a dead silence or a dropped call.

  • BYOC carriers

    Vocily AI layers on top of your existing carrier. India-friendly via VoBiz, global via Twilio and Plivo.

What's in it

What inbound ships with.

The operational primitives you need to run a phone line on AI — without losing control over who picks up, when, and what happens if things go sideways.

Pickup behaviour

Number-to-agent
Each inbound number maps to exactly one agent. Workspace can host many.
Conversation start
Bot greets first, or wait for caller to speak — configurable per agent.
Consent placement
Before greeting, after greeting, or skipped — DPDP-aligned recording-consent line.
First-touch latency
Agent picks up immediately. No 'connecting your call' delay.

Operating window

When the agent answers — and what happens when it doesn't.

Schedule
Per-day, per-timezone weekly schedule.
Holiday calendar
Block specific dates with a custom message.
After-hours line
Configurable spoken message + graceful disconnect.
Edge holidays
Easy to override the schedule for a single day.

Guardrails

Keep cost and behaviour predictable.

Max call duration
1–30 minute ceiling per agent.
Graceful timeout
Spoken goodbye before disconnect — no abrupt cutoff.
Init-failure fallback
Configured spoken message if the agent can't start a session.
Unexpected state
Same fallback line — the caller never hears dead air.

Common questions

What teams ask before they switch.

Yes — when escalation rules fire, the agent transfers to a configured destination (team-line, on-call rotation) with the conversation context summarised for the human picking up.
