Call Screening
Our CallerID and Rejections use an AI to determine if there’s an actual human on the Inbound call. If not, the calls dropped and blacklisted. If the AI detects a human, we’ll announce the call with the option to Accept, send to Voicemail, or Reject. Once the Calls are accepted, it’s whitelisted to our permitted call list for next time. Of course, if you reject it, we drop and blacklist the call.
