How SMS Automation Works
Four simple steps from text to resolution.
Inbound Text Message
Customer texts your phone number; carrier webhooks route message to Atal AI.
Compliance & Consent Check
Opt-in status and local timezone quiet hours are verified before generation.
Grounded Concise Resolution
AI crafts a concise, single-segment reply grounded in your backend data.
Outbound Carrier Dispatch
Reply transmits via Twilio or Telnyx and is logged in the unified inbox.
Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers to common questions about security, pricing, and integrations.
How does Atal AI handle TCPA and carrier compliance for SMS?
Atal AI automatically processes STOP, CANCEL, and UNSUBSCRIBE keywords at the carrier webhook level, logging immediate opt-outs and blocking subsequent outbound messages. It also enforces recipient quiet hours based on their phone area code.
Can I bring my own Twilio or Telnyx phone numbers?
Yes. You enter your Twilio Account SID and Auth Token or Telnyx API key directly into Back Office or your tenant dashboard. Message delivery fees are billed directly to your carrier account with zero markup from Atal AI.
How are SMS messages clamped for length and cost?
Atal AI adapts its persona for SMS to concise turns (under 160 characters / 1 segment whenever possible), avoiding multi-segment message costs and keeping communication punchy.
Can customers schedule appointments or check orders via SMS?
Yes. Customers can text order numbers or request service appointments. Atal AI checks your backend systems and texts back instant confirmations.
