Dial
Dial is a communication stack that provides AI agents with a real phone number for calls, SMS, iMessage, and WhatsApp.
Dial provides a communication stack that gives AI agents a real phone identity. It supports voice calls with real-time transcription and text-to-speech, two-way SMS, iMessage with automatic RCS fallback, and WhatsApp through a single REST API, SDK, or Model Context Protocol server. Developers can integrate the platform using Node.js or Python, or let an agent complete the setup automatically. The service provisions US, Canadian, and international phone numbers in seconds and routes all inbound channels through a unified webhook. It is designed specifically for AI agents rather than human-operated applications.
