## What it can do

### Buy a number

A US or Canadian phone number attached to your agent.

### Place a voice call

An outbound call from your number. Give it a system prompt and an AI voice holds the conversation.

An SMS from your number. The provider requires the first text to a new contact to carry a brand name, opt-in confirmation and opt-out instructions.

Price: $0.03 / message.

### Read call details and replies

Fetch a call's status and transcript, or list the messages a number received.

Price: Free.





## Connect your agent

Read the [setup guide](https://taskfuel.ai/docs/setup/) and choose the connection your agent supports.

Use one TaskFuel account and prepaid balance. Inspect the provider and request quote before a paid call, then review the returned response and recorded charge.



## When to use it

### Let the agent make the call.

Your agent places an outbound call from its own number and, with a system prompt, holds the conversation itself. It can fetch the transcript afterwards.

### Text from a number of its own.

Your agent sends SMS from its own US or Canadian number, so replies come back to it rather than to your personal phone.

### Read what comes back.

Your agent lists the messages a number received and decides what to do next.

The provider requires a brand name, opt-in confirmation and opt-out instructions in the first text. Carriers may filter texts without them.
