Numbers and SIP for AI voice agent platforms

If you build a voice agent, you need a number that people call and a reliable audio path to your engine. TELQIO provides the telephone path and the guardrails, not the AI model.

The problem

A serious voice agent is more than speech understanding. It needs a number that works in the caller’s country, a way to hand over to a person when the conversation goes off script, and duration limits so consumption does not run away.

It also needs a trail. Who called, at what time, for how long, when the handover happened. Without that timeline you cannot correct the agent or answer a complaint.

Example journey

AI voice agents

01

Choosing the integration

A fictional voice agent platform picks the voice integration it uses and has it validated with us.

02

Number linked to the agent

A local number is assigned to the project. Inbound calls are routed to the agent over SIP or an equivalent connection.

03

Duration cap

Each call has a maximum length. Beyond it, the agent wraps up or hands over.

04

Handover to a human

When the caller asks for an adviser, the agent triggers a transfer to a team number.

05

Usable timeline

Start, handover and end are timestamped. The team reviews disputed calls to refine the instructions.

Limits to know

  • TELQIO does not supply an AI model or speech synthesis. The voice integration must be chosen and validated before any real use.
  • Telling callers they are speaking to an automated system is part of your obligations depending on the service and country. Have your advisers confirm them.
  • Recording is off by default. If enabled, its purpose and retention must be defined.
