Dial

Communication stack for AI agents.

Dial provides a communication stack for AI agents, giving them a real phone number to place and receive voice calls, send and receive SMS, and message over iMessage and WhatsApp. It is built for AI agents rather than human-operated apps, with a single API, MCP server, CLI, or SDK. The platform includes real-time transcription, TTS replies, and a unified webhook for all channels.
