About Phonely
There are billions of calls made every day which will soon be handled by AI. Today, 70% of business customer support calls are outsourced to call centers and contact centers. These call centers are looking for a solution that they can build, simulate, and deploy voice agents all in one platform. We are building this.
To get voice AI agents that can truly match human-level performance, we need 99.9% reliability. We’ve achieved this by building fine-tuned LLMs, running simulation testing, implementing LLM monitoring and automation, and creating a Zapier-like platform to tie it all together.
We’re growing fast—our company grew 22% week over week in YC, finishing in the top 5% of companies by revenue in the batch, and we’ve successfully closed our seed round. We are looking for a founding engineer in San Francisco (or willing to relocate) to join the rocket ship.
