Dial developer docs Preview

Dial is a remote MCP server. Add it to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or your own agent, and your AI can make real phone calls in Indian languages, from a Behaf number, and bring back what was said.

Preview. The Dial server opens for wave 1 on Monday 9 Nov 2026. Tool names and fields below are the v1 plan and may change before then. Your personal Dial link arrives by email; it appears below as YOUR_DIAL_LINK.

Quick start

Join the list. We email you your Dial link when your turn comes.
Add Dial to your AI app with that link and sign in once (OAuth).
Ask for a call in plain words. Your AI shows you the number and the plan first, and calls when you say yes.

Which apps work

Dial needs an app that can add a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). As of 4 Nov 2026:

App	Works?	Notes
Claude (web, desktop)	Yes, all plans	Settings → Connectors. Free plan: one custom connector.
Claude Code	Yes	One command, below.
ChatGPT Business, Enterprise, Edu	Yes	Workspace admins add custom MCP servers (web).
ChatGPT Free, Go, Plus, Pro	Not yet	Custom MCP servers aren't available on these plans. We plan to list Dial in ChatGPT's app directory.
Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, your own agent	Yes	Any MCP client with remote HTTP servers and OAuth.

`place_call` fields

Field	Required	Meaning

`on_behalf_of`	Yes	The name Dial says it's calling for
`goal`	Yes	What the call should achieve

Example: “Call Sunrise Clinic and move Mom's Friday appointment to Saturday morning.” Your AI fills the fields, shows you the plan, and calls when you confirm.

Price

The first 100 people in line get 5 minutes of free calls from Monday 9 Nov. After that, ₹5 a minute (a 3-minute call is about ₹15).

Rules on every call

Every call starts by saying an AI is calling, and for whom.
Your AI confirms the number and plan with you before calling.
Dial never asks anyone for OTPs, passwords, card or bank details, or Aadhaar numbers.
Service calls you ask for, one at a time. No sales calls, bulk calling, impersonation, threats or debt collection.
Emergency and premium numbers are blocked. In an emergency, dial 112 yourself.
Anyone can say "don't call me again", and no Dial user can call that number after that.
Calls happen at sensible hours only.

Limits

Dial limits how often any number can be called and how many calls a new account can place each day, to keep numbers clean and stop misuse. If a limit stops a call, your AI tells you why. Exact limits will be listed here before Monday 9 Nov.

Your data

Everyone who uses Dial shows ID once (a quick KYC) before their first call; the people you call never have to. Dial stores your call requests, transcripts, summaries and recordings so you can see what happened, keeps them only for a limited time, and lets you delete any call. We don't sell personal data. See the Dial privacy page and terms.

Indian rules

Dial makes service calls, one at a time, from Behaf numbers. Before wave 1 opens, we're setting up Dial's numbers, call registration and data handling to follow TRAI's calling rules and India's data protection law (DPDP Act).

Support

Questions: jerish@behaf.co. To stop Dial calls to your number, say "don't call me" on any call or email us.
