Agents
What is AI Voice Agent?
An AI voice agent holds a real phone conversation, answering inbound calls or placing outbound ones, in a natural voice. It greets the caller, answers questions, qualifies the inquiry, and books the appointment, then hands anything clinical, financial, or sensitive to a person. In production, a voice intake system on this model answers 200+ calls a day in under a second.
