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.

How it works.
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.
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.
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 answering machines.
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.
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.
- 01Number
the line it arrives on or leaves from
- 02Route
where the call is sent and to whom
- 03Dial
placing it, and how many at once
- 04Connect
the moment a person picks up
- 05Talk
while the conversation is happening
- 06Wrap
the code, the notes, the next step
- 07Record
what is kept, and where it is kept
The specifics.
7 facts- Modes
- Preview, autodial and power, set per campaign; power carries the pacing knobs
- Pacing inputs
- Free-agent count and live answer rate, read continuously
- Abandon target
- Set per campaign, defaults to 3, and the pacer treats it as a ceiling
- Lines per agent
- Power starts at 1.5 and adjusts; the ceiling is 5; preview is strictly one
- Machine handling
- Detection releases the line, or drops a prepared message
- Screening
- Runs before the dial, so pacing never opens a line to a blocked number
- Wrap
- Wrap-up seconds per campaign, after which the next call is offered
Where the call goes next.
A call is a chain of decisions, and this is one link in it. These are the ones either side.

20 capabilitiesFlows, queues, oversight and compliance screening on lines we run ourselves.
Decide what happens when your number rings, then walk a test call through it before a customer does. Thirty-nine nodes, nine categories, one canvas.
Coach a rep mid-call without the customer hearing it, then join outright if it turns. Moving between the three never drops the call or rings anyone again.
Decide what callers hear in the first ten seconds, and where the ones who press nothing end up. Fifteen starting templates, built as a step in the flow.
A caller who waits past the limit does not fall off the end. Four separate exits are picked in advance, behind the welcome, hold music and announcements.
Stop the same two people carrying the floor. Six answers to who gets asked first, changed on the queue you already have rather than built again from scratch.
A caller reaches somebody who can actually help. Agents short of the skill a queue asks for never see the call, and a failover catches what nobody can take.
A caller presses a digit, hangs up and keeps their place in line. Repeat requests merge, so nobody rings the same person twice about one problem.
Your best account stops waiting behind everybody else. Flag the lead and they skip the welcome and the cap, while aging keeps ordinary callers from starving.
Nobody re-explains themselves to the next person. Send the call straight on, or speak privately first, or merge to three and walk out without ending it.
When a call is disputed, who said the line is read off its own channel rather than argued out of the wording. Both sides captured, merged into one file.
One code is the whole of a rep's paperwork. Twenty-six behaviors hang off it, so the task, the callback and the do-not-call mark happen on their own.
Buy the number and it already knows where to send its calls. Search live carrier inventory, filter by country or by the digits it ends with, then claim it.
One number reaches a whole country and the caller pays nothing for it. Toll-free routes through the same flows and bills from the same wallet as local lines.
Selling into a country you have no office in still means a number that looks local. Four carrier providers, so a new market is a purchase, not a project.
The extension is the person, not the device. One number reaches your rep, and a live call walks from browser tab to desk phone without either side noticing.
A call nobody was going to answer still lands somewhere. Organization, team and personal boxes each decide who may listen, and every message is transcribed.
Closed is a fact about the clock, not something each flow decides alone. Write the week and the holidays once and every queue and campaign shuts with you.
Where a supervisor picks which call to join. Every conversation currently up, who is on it, the queue it came through and how long it has run, changing live.
Text from the numbers you already call on. The thread sits beside the calls to that contact rather than in a second app nobody on the floor ever opens.
Everything a caller hears that is not a person. Before you replace a prompt, the page names the menus, queues and mailboxes still playing the one you have.
The rest of the platform.
Five more categories, all on the same record and the same bill. Each card names three of its capabilities, so you can tell from here whether it is worth opening.
