Gauge

Your first real phone calls, funded by Twilio's ~$15 signup credit. Trial rules allow calls only to numbers you verify — perfect for testing on yourselves.

The AI that answers your calls runs on Cloudflare's edge GPUs, next to your Worker. Its free tier has a daily ceiling that would make an agent go quiet mid-day — on the Gauge platform account that is our bill to keep paid, not yours.

Capacity in plain numbers: the free tier is good for ≈ 12–16 calls/day; paid removes the ceiling entirely at ≈ a fraction of a cent per call.

Call any number, drop the trial announcement before every call, and unlock Media Streams — which switches the agent to the streaming engine.

Today every answer waits ~3.3s (p50, measured on a real tenant's calls) for the phone network to decide you stopped talking. The streaming engine cuts that to ~0.7s.

The agent listens and speaks over a live audio stream with barge-in — the conversation stops having gaps at all. Runs Cloudflare-native, no vendor keys.

Removes the measured 3.3s wait on every turn of every call.

The phone's speech recognition is biased toward the words you give it. Trade terms, product names, local place names — entered as callers SAY them — stop being mis-heard, and a mis-heard word is a turn the agent answers wrongly. Free, and often worth more than any paid upgrade.

29 terms in this workspace's vocabulary — every one is a word the recogniser will no longer guess at.

People answer local numbers. One number per city or country, rotated least-recently-used with per-number daily caps and automatic resting when an answer rate collapses — so growing volume never reads as spam.

Runs the deep tier — qualification, FAQ answers, summaries — on a frontier model with your own key. The fast spoken path stays on the edge, so latency does not change.
