Two Modes: Voice and Chat
VoiceInfra supports two interaction modes on WhatsApp Business, and you can enable both on the same number simultaneously. Voice calls — Customers dial your WhatsApp Business number and your AI agent answers with natural, human-like voice. Handles inbound and outbound calls over SIP trunking. Scales to hundreds of concurrent calls with no hardware. Chat / Messaging — Your AI agent responds to WhatsApp text messages instantly. Qualify leads, answer FAQs, book appointments, and escalate to a human agent when needed — all through WhatsApp chat.Pricing
WhatsApp voice calls add 0.105–0.50 per transfer.
WhatsApp to PBX Transfer
One of VoiceInfra’s unique capabilities on WhatsApp is the ability to transfer a live voice call directly to a PBX extension. The workflow looks like this:- A customer calls your WhatsApp Business number
- Your AI agent answers, qualifies the caller, and gathers context
- When a human agent is needed, the AI transfers the call to the relevant PBX extension
- The human agent picks up with full context — no need for the customer to repeat themselves
