Buy phone numbers directly in the Studio, route inbound calls to your AI agents, and group numbers into pools for outbound campaign caller IDs — no external telephony console needed. Phone numbers live in Studio → Manage → Phone Numbers.

Buying a Number

  1. Click Buy Number. The Buy a Phone Number drawer opens.
  2. Select a Country — United States, Canada, or Australia — and optionally an Area Code (e.g. 415).
  3. Click Search and pick from the available numbers. Each result shows its locality and Voice/SMS capabilities.
  4. Click Purchase. For billable numbers a Confirm purchase dialog shows the exact prorated charge for the current month and the recurring monthly amount before you commit.
Your first phone number is free. Each additional number is billed as a Phone Number Add-on — $1.50/month by default — prorated from the day of purchase.
There is no refund if a number is released mid-cycle. An active plan is required to purchase additional numbers beyond the free one.

Assigning a Number to an AI Agent

Assigning a number routes its inbound calls to an agent:
  1. Click Assign on an unassigned number (or Reassign on an assigned one).
  2. Search and select the AI agent in the Assign Phone Number drawer.
A number can be active on only one agent at a time; an agent can hold many numbers. Inbound call routing is updated automatically the moment the assignment saves. Unassign stops routing new calls to the agent — active calls are not interrupted, but new calls go unrouted until the number is assigned again.

Releasing a Number

Click the Release number action and confirm. Releasing permanently removes the number — it cannot be undone, and no refund is issued for the remainder of the billing cycle. A number cannot be released while it is:
  • Assigned to an agent — unassign it first (the dialog offers a shortcut).
  • In an active number pool — remove it from all pools first; the dialog lists the pools that block release.

Number Billing

  • The billing overview plan card shows a live summary line, e.g. “3 phone numbers — 1 included, 2 × 1.50=1.50 = 3.00/mo”.
  • If a number’s monthly invoice payment fails, the number is badged Payment Failed. It keeps working, and returns to normal automatically once the invoice is paid.
  • Cancelling your subscription permanently removes all phone numbers on the account at the end of the billing cycle — the cancel dialog warns you with the exact count before you confirm.
