Phone calls are available on paid plans. You also need a Twilio account and a phone number that supports voice. Twilio bills the number and call minutes to your Twilio account.

How it works
- The agent keeps answers short and suited to speech, and remembers what was said earlier in the call.
- Your actions work on calls.
- Each phone number can be connected to one agent.
- Replies use your plan’s words like chat replies. Twilio charges for the number and the call minutes in your Twilio account.
