Overview

Callr's Answering Machine Detection (AMD) uses the amd@v2 action to determine whether a live person or a voicemail system has answered an outbound call. Based on the result, your call flow can branch to different logic — for example, leaving a recorded message on voicemail or connecting a live agent when a human answers.

How It Works

When a call is answered, AMD analyzes the initial audio for patterns typical of voicemail greetings (long speech, beep tones). The detection returns a result that you use in conditional branching to route the call appropriately.

Configuration

Adjustable detection sensitivity to balance between false positives (human classified as machine) and false negatives (machine classified as human). Configurable wait time before making a determination. Works with all outbound call scenarios including broadcast calls and click-to-call.

Use Cases

Outbound sales campaigns that leave pre-recorded voicemails. Appointment reminder systems that adapt based on pickup type. Lead qualification calls that route to agents only when humans answer. Broadcast notifications with voicemail fallback.
