• get_answering_line_offer

• try_answering_line

  Create a test call so you can hear an After Hours answering line before anything is set up: it returns a shared test phone number and a 4-digit code (valid 24 hours, up to 5 calls). Calling the number and keying the code reaches a phone assistant answering as the business you de…

• set_up_answering_line

  Create (first call) or read the SIP address and private trunk credentials for one of the signed-in owner's answering lines, so the owner's phone system can send calls to the line over SIP, with no phone number, instead of forwarding a number. For the line's number and forwarding…

• get_receptionist_benchmark

  Read Odile Labs' published benchmark of AI phone answering products: real test calls placed to public lines, scored against stated measures. Use it when someone asks how AI phone answering handles real calls, or to compare named products. Vendor-run by Odile Labs (which sells Af…

• buy_pack

  Returns a one-time Stripe checkout link for a prepaid pack, to top up something that already exists; to start a new answering line use set_up_answering_line. The customer opens the link and pays on Stripe's own page, and this connection never sees the card. Only call it when the…
