Phone numbers are how customers connect with your AI agent. This article explains how phone numbers work in Speako.
Overview
Speako provides your business with a dedicated phone number. When customers call this number, your AI agent answers and handles the conversation.
How It Works
Your AI Phone Number
When you create a location in Speako, you're automatically assigned a phone number. This becomes your AI agent's phone number.
Call Flow
- Customer calls your AI phone number
- Speako's phone system receives the call
- Your AI agent answers and begins the conversation
- The agent handles the call (bookings, questions, etc.)
- Call ends and is logged in your dashboard
Your Business Phone Number
You can also provide your existing business phone number. This serves as:
- A fallback for call transfers
- Reference for customers
- Part of your business profile
Phone Number Assignment
Automatic Assignment
When you create a location:
- Speako assigns an available phone number
- The number matches your region when possible
- If regional numbers aren't available, you get a number from the same country
Regional Matching
We try to give you a phone number with a local area code:
- Customers see a familiar local number
- Builds trust with local callers
- Matches your business location
