How IrisAgent works with Exotel

Exotel keeps running your phone lines. A call flow with a Connect applet, assigned to your Exophone, sends calls to an IrisAgent number, and IrisAgent Voice AI answers them. When a caller needs a person, IrisAgent transfers the call to your team.

Stays the same in Exotel

  • Your Exophones and the numbers customers dial
  • Your Exotel account and admin access
  • Your other call flows in App Bazaar
  • Which Exophones route to IrisAgent, set by you in Installed App

What IrisAgent adds

  • A voice agent that answers from your knowledge base and past tickets
  • Procedures for lookups, refund checks, and ticket creation
  • Human handoff to the agent or queue number you choose
  • Recordings and transcripts in Activity, Conversations

Answer Exophone calls with AI

Build one call flow in App Bazaar and install it on the Exophones you choose. IrisAgent answers those calls, and your other Exophones keep their current flows.

Callers hear answers grounded in your knowledge base and past tickets, in English or in the caller's own language with multilingual auto-detect.

Transfer to your team when a person is needed

Transfer to your team when a person is needed

Turn on Human handoff and enter a direct agent, ring group, or contact-center number. IrisAgent transfers only when a procedure calls for it or it cannot answer, so routine calls stay with the AI.

The transfer is immediate. If no one picks up, the call follows your phone routing, such as voicemail.

Review every call

Every call lands in Activity, Conversations with the recording, transcript, and the procedures that ran.

Add AutoQA to score calls against rules you write in plain English, for the AI and your agents in one dashboard.

Grounded answers, secure by default

Grounded answers, secure by default

Voice AI answers from your own knowledge base and past tickets. Procedures override those answers when a caller's request matches, so policy-driven calls follow your steps.
