Your number, connected

From the first ring to the right destination.

A route for every call

Teams, queues, opening hours and clear fallbacks.

A voice that responds

Dynamic text-to-speech and speech recognition.

06

A clearer picture

Follow your call activity, outcomes and usage.

The inbound platform

A complete home
for your numbers.

Keep your numbers through SIP or porting. Build the service around them, from everyday routing to the calls that need something more.

Explore the inbound platform. Choose a feature group.

A route for every caller.

From a simple forward to a service with different rules for every part of the day.

Destinations & failover

Ring people, devices or SIP destinations together, in sequence or by round robin. Add a failover or link another service.

IVR & call menus

Give callers clear keypad choices, with a route for unanswered or unexpected input.

Queues & callbacks

Hold for an available colleague, offer a way out or let callers keep their place and receive a callback.

Ring groups & conferences

Bring the right people into the conversation. Ring a team or send the call into a conference bridge.

Hours & date exceptions

Set weekly opening hours, holiday lists and one-off date windows. Decide where calls go outside them.

Area & IP routing

Send calls to different destinations by caller area or incoming IP rules. Keep local calls with the right team.

Make every hello your own.

The greeting, the conversation and the handover. Set each part up around your business.

Greetings & audio

Play a welcome, a useful announcement or hold audio. Use an audio player where your service needs it.

Whisper & transfers

Give the answering colleague a private prompt. Enable a mid-call transfer when the conversation needs another team.

Caller ID controls

Set the caller ID presented to the next destination, with supported presentation and masking options.

AI Voice Agents

Answer questions, qualify enquiries and connect configured booking or business actions, with a route to your team.

Dynamic speech

Speak live text or collect a short spoken response. Use call details and connected data to choose what happens next.

Bespoke capability

Language Bridge

Help people speak different languages on the same call. Each speaks, pauses, then hears the translated reply.

Speak Text and Speech Input support short, structured English interactions. Language Bridge uses configured language pairs and turn-by-turn interpretation.

Your service. Your rules.

Decide who gets through, what follows the call and when your team needs a warning.

Service firewall

Limit repeat calls within a chosen period. Use service rules or an account profile, with a route for calls that exceed the limit.

Access control lists

Allow or block callers using saved number lists. Apply ordered rules and choose what happens to a blocked call.

Anonymous callers

Give withheld numbers their own route. Handle them differently without changing the path for everyone else.

Call recording

Enable recording where it belongs in the service. Keep recordings available through the platform’s access controls.

SIP header controls

Add custom headers or apply supported header changes for the systems and destinations receiving your calls.

Bespoke capability

Call Protection

Check the opening of answered calls for potential scam-risk signals. Privately warn the answering person and run configured background alerts.

Call Protection supports human judgement; it does not establish fraud or authenticate a caller. Its monitoring and alerts keep the call connected.

Keep the useful details.

Messages, outcomes and connected systems. Make it easier to pick up where the call left off.

Voicemail

Collect a message when the team is unavailable, with delivery and access set up for your service.

Inbound fax

Receive fax alongside your voice services and get the document to the people who need it.

SMS & WhatsApp

Bring business messaging into your setup through supported, connected accounts and providers.

Missed-call alerts

Let the team know about a missed call, with the caller details and timing they need to follow up.

Connected & post-call actions

Look up a record, run a configured business action or trigger a follow-up after the call.

Reports & recordings

See call activity, outcomes and usage. Review recordings, transcripts and summaries where enabled.

Visual inbound flow builder

Build the route.
See the whole picture.

Connect menus, queues, speech, AI agents and your business systems on one canvas. Add a branch. Set a fallback. Make every step work together.

01

Design it visually.

Start from a blank canvas or a guided draft. Move the steps and join the routes.

02

Try the different paths.

Simulate the logic before publishing, including fallbacks and unexpected answers.

03

Change it with confidence.

Save a draft, validate it and publish when ready. Follow live activity and review the route a call took.

The building blocks, all in one place.

Open a group to explore the nodes.

A few useful answers.

Can we use our existing numbers?

Yes. Point your existing numbers to CallPlatform via SIP, or port them to us. Either way, your customers keep calling the same numbers.

Can an AI agent sit in the same call flow?

Yes. Use an AI Voice Agent as the first answer, for overflow or after hours, with a route back to your team.

Are all services charged in the same way?

Your quote sets out numbers, calling and any selected services. On a dedicated platform, you have full platform access and can use your own supported providers. Third-party usage and optional services are agreed separately.

Give your callers a clear way through.

We’ll help you put the right numbers and routes in place.
