Predictive Dialer

Open more lines than you have free agents, so the waiting happens on somebody else's line instead of a rep's. The ratio is solved from your live answer rate and the abandonment cap you set, and the cap is a ceiling rather than a target.

The mechanism

How it works.

01

It watches two numbers

How many agents are free right now, and how often this list is actually answering. Neither is a setting you maintain; both are read from what the floor is doing, and the ratio follows them through the shift.

02

The cap is a ceiling

You set the abandonment rate you will not exceed. The pacer opens the most lines that number allows and no more, so a list that starts answering better gets more lines rather than a higher abandon rate.

03

Machines never reach a headset

Detection listens to the first moments of a connect and releases the line before a greeting reaches an agent, so the lines the pacer opened are spent on conversations rather than on answerphones.

04

Every connect arrives with its record

A live answer is bridged to a free agent with the contact already open, so the first second of the call is spent talking rather than searching.

Where it sits

Two moments in every call.

Every call passes through the same seven. Predictive Dialer is the lit ones, and everything either side of it is a different page in this category.

20 capabilities

Flows, queues, oversight and compliance screening on media we operate.

Call Flow Builder

Thirty-nine nodes across nine categories. Drag them onto the canvas, connect the branches, and dry-run the whole path before you publish it.

Listen, Whisper & Barge

Three states of one connection. Hear the call, coach the rep without the customer knowing, or join outright - and the audio path redraws as you switch.

IVR & Auto-Attendant

Build the menu callers hear as a step in the flow, with fifteen starting templates from a plain auto-attendant to compliance-screened inbound.

Call Queues

Welcome audio, hold music, periodic announcements and four separate overflow destinations, so a queue never simply runs out of places to send a call.

Ring Strategies

Ring all, hunt, fewest calls, random, round robin with memory, or strict priority order. Change how a queue behaves without rebuilding it.

Skills-Based Routing

Match a caller to the agents who can actually help, on all, any or weighted skill matching, with a failover destination when nobody qualifies.

Queue Callbacks

Offer a callback after a wait threshold or a queue position, hold the caller's place, and dedupe requests so nobody gets rung twice for one problem.

VIP Priority Routing

Flag a lead VIP and they skip the welcome, bypass the queue cap and reach an agent first - with ageing, so that ordinary callers never starve behind them.

Transfer & Three-Way

Hand a call over cold, or consult first and then connect. Merge into a three-way and step out, leaving the other two talking without a drop.

Call Recording

Each side of the call is recorded on its own channel, so who said what is a fact rather than a guess - and the transcript inherits that separation.

Dispositions & Wrap-Up

Wrap-up codes that do something. Twenty-six behaviours fire off a disposition: raise a task, book a callback, set do-not-call, flag the wrong party.

Phone Numbers

Search live carrier inventory, filter by country or by digits the number ends with, and claim it to a flow or a person the moment it is yours.

Toll-Free Numbers

Toll-free sits beside local as a first-class number type, routed by the same flows and billed from the same wallet as everything else you own.

International Numbers

Numbers in the countries you operate in, drawn from four carrier providers, so opening a new market is a purchase rather than a procurement project.

Extensions & Webphone

Every rep gets an extension and a browser phone, and can move a call between the browser and a desk phone mid-conversation without dropping it.

Voicemail Boxes

Organisation, team and personal mailboxes with their own access rules and greetings, and every message transcribed and attached to the right record.

Business Hours & Holidays

Reusable weekly schedules and holiday calendars in your own timezone, so out-of-hours routing is a setting rather than a flow you rebuild each December.

Live Call Monitoring

Every call in progress on one screen, pushed as it changes rather than polled, with the agent, the number presented and the queue each one came through.

SMS & Text Conversations

Two-way texting from the same numbers you call on, threaded per contact and landing on the same record, so the text and the call are one conversation.

Media Library & Voices

Upload a recording, record one in the browser, or generate it from text in a chosen brand voice - then use it in any flow, queue or mailbox.
