Why use Twilio with PolyAI
If your organization already uses Twilio for telephony, you can connect your existing numbers rather than purchasing new ones. This lets you:- Keep your current numbers — No need to port or change numbers your customers already know.
- Use Twilio SMS — Send SMS messages during or after calls for confirmations, links, or follow-ups.
- Integrate with Twilio Flex — Route calls between your PolyAI agent and live agents in your Flex contact center.
