FAQ
Common questions
Everything prospects ask before their first live call.
What is an AI voice agent?▼
An AI voice agent conducts natural phone conversations using speech recognition, large language models, and text-to-speech. It can book appointments, qualify leads, answer support questions, and trigger actions in your CRM — 24/7.
How is CandexAI different from IVR or chatbots?▼
Legacy IVR uses rigid menus. Basic IVAs map intents only. CandexAI uses LLMs for open-ended dialogue, real-time tools, outbound calling, and sub-second latency — closer to a trained human agent.
How do I try it without a sales call?▼
Use the live demo on this page: enter your name, email, and phone, pick an agent, and receive a real outbound call in seconds. You can also talk to Sarah via the mic widget on any page.
Can I use my existing Twilio number?▼
Yes. Admins import numbers in the dashboard with Twilio SID and token. Outbound test calls and production flows use your configured default number.
Which languages are supported?▼
We support 70+ languages with multilingual models. Agents can detect language mid-call and switch voices dynamically for global operations.
What latency should I expect?▼
Production targets are ~600ms end-to-end for natural turn-taking. Actual latency depends on region, model choice, and telephony path.
Can agents call external APIs during a live call?▼
Yes. Real-time function calling lets agents check calendars, update CRM records, process payments, and transfer to humans with context.
Is my data private?▼
Yes. We offer private cloud and on-premise deployment so audio and inference stay in your environment. Public cloud demo uses encrypted transit only.
Do you support batch outbound campaigns?▼
Yes. Upload recipient lists with dynamic variables (name, email, custom fields) and launch high-volume outbound campaigns with per-call analytics.
How long does implementation take?▼
Prebuilt agents can go live in under two weeks. Custom flows with integrations typically take 4–8 weeks depending on compliance and CRM depth.
What happens after each call?▼
You receive transcripts, optional recordings, structured summaries, and dashboard metrics. Leads from the demo are emailed to your team automatically.
Can I escalate to a human?▼
Absolutely. Define escalation triggers (sentiment, keywords, explicit request) and warm-transfer with full conversation history to your contact center.
