Give your AI agent a real phone number in 10 seconds
Your agent can deploy in seconds but cannot get a phone number. Dial fixes that - one API call and it gets a real one in about 10 seconds. It places and receives voice calls, sends and receives SMS in 200+ countries, and messages over iMessage. It can even read inbound verification codes, so phone-gated signups stop being a dead end. Works via REST API, CLI, MCP servers, and SDKs. Free credit on signup, no card.
Last year we were building an AI agent that needed to sign itself up for a service. It got all the way through the form, hit "we've texted you a code," and just... stopped. Dead. There was no workaround. A fully autonomous agent, defeated by six digits sent to a phone it didn't have.
This isn't an AI that answers your phone. It's a phone number that belongs to your AI.
Every agent framework has gotten very good at giving agents tools. But the moment an agent needs to exist in the physical world - verify an identity, call a human, receive a text - it hits a wall that was built for people:
- No way to provision a number programmatically - Registration paperwork that takes weeks before the first text sends - Per-seat pricing that makes no sense when you have 100 agents - No way for an agent to read an inbound code - Webhooks you have to host and route yourself
So we built the thing we wanted: one API call, and your agent has a real phone number in about 10 seconds.
What it can do: - Place and receive voice calls, with real-time transcription, using your own LLM or ours - Send and receive SMS in 200+ countries - Message over iMessage from its own number, with automatic RCS/SMS fallback - Read inbound codes, so phone-gated signups stop being a dead end - One webhook, one format, every channel
The fastest way to see it: paste this into Claude Code, Cursor, Grok Bot, Codex or any agent -
Get yourself a Dial phone number and call me. Say hello and that setup is working, then ask if I have any questions. Follow https://getdial.ai/skills.md
It signs itself up, provisions its own number, and your phone rings. No dashboard, no human in the loop. That's the whole pitch, and you can verify it in about 30 seconds.
We'll be here all day. What's the first thing you'd have your agent call or text? Genuinely curious - the answers to this are how we've picked most of the roadmap so far.

Who hunted Dial?
Dial was hunted by fmerian. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
