About the plan

What is an AI phone number?

An AI phone number is a real US local number that belongs to the AI you already use, so it can make and receive calls and send and receive texts for you. Bland’s Agent Phone Plan gives ChatGPT, Claude, Codex, Meta Muse, or Grok Bot its own number for everyday errands, then reports back what it learned. What the unlimited AI calling and SMS plan includes.

What does this add to my AI?

A dedicated US phone number for calls and SMS. Connect your AI so it can call businesses on your behalf, receive incoming calls, and send and receive texts on the same line. Set up Grok Bot phone calls.

Can an AI assistant make phone calls?

Yes, once it is connected to Bland. On its own it cannot dial out, but with the Agent Phone Plan your AI works like an AI phone call assistant: it asks a restaurant about a table, checks opening hours, requests an appointment change, or confirms a delivery window, then reports back. The business decides, so outcomes are not promised. How inbound calls work.

Should my AI agent have its own phone number?

It helps when you want your AI to run everyday phone errands and be reachable on one line. A dedicated number lets it place calls, take incoming calls, and text you back, within fair-use limits. If you only want to try outbound calls, $2 of free credits calls from a shared Bland number instead. Compare AI phone number cost.

Which AI platforms can I connect?

Bland documents integrations for ChatGPT, Claude, Codex, and Meta Muse. Codex connects to Bland’s MCP server with a Bland API key in its config.toml, since sign in with Bland isn’t available for Codex yet. Grok Bot requires compatibility checks for custom MCP URLs and headers. We aren’t partnered with or endorsed by OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, or xAI. Click “$14.99 for your first month” and choose your AI to see its setup path. Grok Bot needs the Link CLI for paid self-setup and a compatible custom MCP connection. Other agents need external-tool or API support. The connection steps depend on the client you use. Grok Bot phone calls, step by step.

Do I subscribe before connecting my AI?

Choose your AI on this page first and follow its setup path. Compatible agents can generate a signup link. You choose your plan and approve access in Bland. Opening a chat alone does not connect your AI. See the phone number API for AI agents.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes, through Bland’s MCP server. In ChatGPT’s apps and connectors (developer mode), add a connector with the URL https://api.bland.ai/v1/mcp and sign in with Bland. Buy your plan or credits in the Bland dashboard, since purchases aren’t offered over a sign-in connection. Set up ChatGPT phone calls.

Does it work with Claude?

Yes. Add Bland as a custom connector in Claude, or connect Claude Code or the Claude Desktop app, then sign in with Bland or use your API key. Set up Claude phone calls.

Does it work with Meta Muse?

Yes. Muse connects through Bland’s REST API as a custom API connector. Give it your Bland API key through its secure credential prompt, or let it set itself up with a signup link you approve. Set up Meta Muse phone calls.

Can I set this up on my phone?

Muse uses instructions pasted into its app. Codex reads its Bland API key from the environment it launches in, so set it up where you run Codex. Ordinary ChatGPT needs a supported Bland integration first. Choose your AI to see what Claude Code and Claude Desktop require. How ChatGPT phone calls work.

How much does it cost?

Your first month is $14.99 (50% off), then $29.99 per month. The first-month price applies to your first Agent Phone Plan, once per account owner; any other purchase is $29.99 from the first month. You’re charged when you approve the plan. Want to try it first? You can start on $2 of free credits instead. The plan includes one US number and unlimited US and Canada calls and SMS, subject to fair use. Compare AI phone number cost.

Can I try it for free?

Yes. When you approve your AI’s connection, you can continue on $2 of free credits instead of starting the plan. Your AI connects through the Bland API and places outbound calls from a shared pool of Bland numbers. Free calls are billed at $0.14 per connected minute, so $2 covers roughly 14 minutes. There’s no dedicated number and no texting on free credits, since texting requires the Agent Phone Plan. Top up credits or add the plan anytime from Billing & Plans. Use the phone number API for AI agents.

What does unlimited include?

Unlimited voice minutes and SMS to US and Canada destinations on your included agent number, subject to fair use: one concurrent call across your account, up to 20 calls per hour, 50 calls per day, and 1,000 call minutes per day. Outbound calls can last up to 60 minutes. Texts are capped at 20 per hour and 100 per day. What the unlimited AI calling and SMS plan includes.

What happens if two calls come in at once?

One call can be active at a time, across inbound and outbound calling combined. While your agent is on a call, another inbound caller receives a busy response. A second outbound call is rejected until the first call ends. How inbound calls work.

Where can my agent call and text?

Calls, transfers, and SMS are limited to US and Canada destinations. One US local phone number is included. International destinations outside the US and Canada are not supported by this plan. How an AI phone number to text works.

Can I cancel or change plans?

Cancel from Billing & Plans. Canceling stops the $29.99 monthly charge going forward, and your phone number stays on your account. If you need parallel calls, more numbers, or higher call volume, you can move to Bland’s Build or Scale plans. What an AI phone number costs.
