MagickVoice is a no-code AI voice agent platform that lets businesses build, launch and monitor AI agents that make and answer phone calls in 25+ languages, and follow up over WhatsApp, SMS and email from the same place. ### What is an AI voice agent? An AI voice agent is software that holds natural phone conversations on your behalf. It listens, understands what the caller means, replies in a human-sounding voice, and takes actions such as booking an appointment, qualifying a lead or sending a WhatsApp message. It is sometimes called an AI telecaller or voice bot. ### How is an AI voice agent different from an IVR? A traditional IVR makes callers press keys through a fixed menu. An AI voice agent understands natural speech in the caller’s language, answers open questions and completes tasks in one conversation. MagickVoice gives you both: AI agents, plus a drag-and-drop IVR builder for structured flows. ### Do I need to write code to build a voice agent? No. You can create an agent by describing it in plain language, by using the drag-and-drop IVR workflow builder, or by starting from one of 50+ industry templates. Most teams go live in about five minutes. Developers can also use the API. ### Which languages does MagickVoice support? MagickVoice supports 25+ languages, including 10+ Indian languages such as Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam and Marathi, with native accent support, as well as English. ### Can MagickVoice handle both inbound and outbound calls? Yes. Outbound calls can be sent individually, in bulk from a CSV, or on a schedule. For inbound, you tag an agent to a phone number and every incoming call is answered by that agent. ### Which channels besides voice are included? MagickVoice combines AI voice calls with WhatsApp (both the Business API and personal numbers), SMS with 98%+ delivery, WebRTC browser calling and a branded email channel — all in one platform, under a single API. ### Which telephony providers does MagickVoice work with? MagickVoice works with Twilio, Plivo and Exotel, with automatic failover between providers, and offers phone numbers in 190+ countries. ### Is my data secure, and where is it stored? Data is hosted primarily in India, in the Asia Pacific (Mumbai) region. It is encrypted with TLS 1.2+ in transit and AES-256 at rest, protected by role-based access control and audit logs, and tested with quarterly penetration tests. MagickVoice does not train foundation models on your call recordings or prompts. ### Does MagickVoice help with TRAI and DND compliance in India? Yes. Numbers are normalised and checked against DND lists before every call, and MagickVoice supports the KYC and DLT registration that Indian operators require. You remain responsible for consent, permitted calling hours and AI disclosure, as set out in our Privacy Policy. ### How fast does the AI respond on a call? MagickVoice agents respond in under 300 milliseconds, so conversations feel natural rather than robotic. ### How much does MagickVoice cost? You can start for free. After that, pricing is pay-as-you-go and credit-based: you pay per minute for calls and per message for WhatsApp and SMS, with no long-term commitment. ### Can I try a MagickVoice AI agent before signing up? Yes. Call Aria, our own AI voice agent, at +91-80653-90179. Aria is available 24/7 and can walk you through features, pricing and integrations. ## Blog posts ### AI voice agents for hotels: a practical guide for Indian hoteliers URL: https://magickvoice.com/blog/ai-voice-agent-hotels-india Published: 2026-10-31 How an AI voice agent for hotels in India answers everyday guest calls, which calls should go to your team, and how to start safely and measure it. - An AI voice agent suits the everyday hotel calls: room availability, booking questions, check-in and check-out times, directions, amenities and late arrival notes. - Special requests, complaints, group bookings and custom quotes should go to your team, along with everything the guest has already said on the call. - Phone still matters in Indian hospitality. CRISIL found only 31–33% of hotel bookings in India were made online in FY2023, and it counts phone calls as offline bookings. - Start with one type of call, listen to the recordings every day for the first two weeks, and widen only once the answers are right. - Adding an offer to a pre-arrival call can make it a promotional call under TRAI rules, which must come from a 140-series number and respect DND preferences. **Can an AI voice agent take hotel bookings over the phone?** Yes, for simple bookings, if it can see your live availability and rates. A safe way to start is to answer booking questions and send a booking link on WhatsApp, then add full bookings later. **Which hotel calls should not go to an AI agent?** Complaints, upset guests, special occasions, dietary or medical needs, group bookings and custom quotes. These need a person, and the agent should pass on what the guest has already said. **Can an AI receptionist for hotels speak Hindi and other Indian languages?** Yes. MagickVoice agents speak 25+ languages, including 10+ Indian languages with native accents, such as Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam and Marathi. Pick the languages your guests call in most, and test a few calls in each before you go live. **Can a hotel in India make AI pre-arrival calls?** Yes, for service calls about a guest's existing booking. Adding an offer can make it promotional, so it must come from a 140-series number and respect DND. TRAI also requires businesses to declare AI calls to their telecom provider in advance, and the hotel remains responsible for consent, calling hours and telling guests it's an AI agent. **Should a hotel tell guests they are talking to an AI agent?** Yes. Say it in the greeting, for example "I'm the hotel's AI assistant". The hotel remains responsible for telling guests they are speaking to an AI agent, and an honest start makes the handoff to staff easier. ### AI voice agents for loan collections: a practical guide for Indian lenders URL: https://magickvoice.com/blog/ai-voice-agent-loan-collections Published: 2026-10-29 How an AI voice agent for loan collections handles EMI reminders and early dues, which RBI and TRAI rules apply, and how Indian lenders can start safely. - AI voice agents fit best on pre-due EMI reminders and early-bucket follow-ups, where call volume is high and the conversation is simple. - Disputes, hardship cases, settlements and older dues should go to trained people, along with the full call history. - RBI already limits recovery calls to 8 am–7 pm. From 1 January 2027, its new directions also require lenders to record recovery calls and keep the recordings for six months. - Keep reminder calls free of offers. Under TRAI rules, adding promotional content turns a service call into a promotional one. - Speak to each borrower in a language they understand. RBI's Fair Practices Code for NBFCs asks lenders to communicate in the vernacular or a language the borrower understands. **Can an AI voice agent make loan recovery calls in India?** Yes. RBI's recovery rules don't name AI agents, but the lender is accountable for every call made for it, so an AI agent must follow the same hours, frequency limits, recording and respectful language as a human caller. **What are the RBI calling hours for loan recovery?** Between 8 am and 7 pm. From 1 January 2027, calls outside these hours are allowed only if the borrower has expressly asked for them. Microfinance loans have a tighter 9 am to 6 pm limit until 31 December 2026. **Do EMI reminder calls need a 1600-series number?** RBI asks lenders to make service and transaction calls from 1600-series numbers, and TRAI set deadlines between January and March 2026. Industry body FIDC has asked RBI to clarify how this applies to collection calls, so confirm with your compliance team. **Does the DPDP Act apply to collection calls?** Yes, because collection calls use borrowers' personal data. The lender is responsible for that data, and a voice AI vendor processes it on the lender's behalf. The core duties under the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Rules, 2025 apply from 13 May 2027. ### Best AI voice agent for debt collection in India: a 2026 buyer's guide URL: https://magickvoice.com/blog/best-ai-voice-agent-debt-collection-india Published: 2026-10-29 How to pick an AI voice agent for debt collection in India: a 10-point scorecard built on RBI's 2027 recovery rules and TRAI's AI-call norms, plus a pilot plan. - There is no single best AI voice agent for debt collection in India. The right one passes your compliance checks and beats your current process in a holdout pilot on your own accounts. - From 1 January 2027, RBI's recovery directions allow contact only between 8 am and 7 pm, require recovery calls to be recorded and kept for six months, and limit talk of dues to the borrower or guarantor. - TRAI's September 2026 amendment treats calls made by software or an artificial voice as A2P calls, which must be declared to your telecom operator in advance or count as spam. - RBI's rules bind the lender and its recovery agents, not the software vendor. No vendor can be "RBI-compliant" on your behalf, so test the controls yourself. - Compare vendors on cost per resolved account, not price per minute. A higher rate can work out cheaper if more borrowers pay. **What is the best AI voice agent for debt collection in India?** There is no single best one. Pick the vendor that enforces RBI's 8 am to 7 pm window, caps attempts, records every call, checks identity before naming an amount, hands disputes to a person, and then beats your current process in a holdout pilot on your own accounts. **Can an AI voice agent make loan recovery calls in India?** Yes, if the calls follow the same rules as a human recovery agent. RBI's 2026 directions do not mention AI, and the lender stays accountable for every call made for it, so set the AI agent to the same hours, call limits, recording and respectful language. **Do AI collection calls have to come from 1600-series numbers?** RBI-regulated lenders must make service and transactional calls from 1600-series numbers. Whether every recovery call counts as a service call is still unclear, and industry body FIDC has asked RBI to clarify, so confirm the position with your compliance team. **Which voice AI is best for loan recovery calls in Hindi?** The one that handles your borrowers' Hindi best on a test, not the one with the longest language list. Play real recordings with Hinglish, amounts, dates and background noise, and check how often the agent gets the amount and promise date right. **How do you compare AI voice agent pricing for collections?** Convert every quote into cost per resolved account: total minutes, messages and telephony charges for the pilot, divided by the accounts that paid or kept a promise to pay. Per-minute rates alone hide rounding, telephony and failed-call charges. ### AI Voice Agent vs IVR: What’s the Difference, and Which Do You Need? URL: https://magickvoice.com/blog/ai-voice-agent-vs-ivr Published: 2026-10-28 An IVR makes callers press keys through a fixed menu; an AI voice agent understands natural speech and finishes the task. Here’s how to choose. - An IVR routes callers through a fixed keypad menu. An AI voice agent understands what the caller says, in their own language, and completes the task in one conversation. - IVRs still work well for short, predictable flows such as language selection or simple routing. - AI voice agents are a better fit when callers ask open questions, speak regional languages or need something done, like booking a slot or confirming a delivery. - You don’t have to pick one. MagickVoice gives you both, AI voice agents plus a drag-and-drop IVR builder for structured flows, in one platform. **Is an AI voice agent the same as a voice bot or AI telecaller?** Broadly, yes. All three describe software that holds a phone conversation on your behalf. “AI voice agent” usually means it can also take actions, such as booking an appointment or sending a WhatsApp message, rather than only answering questions. **Can an AI voice agent replace my existing IVR?** It can, but you don’t have to replace it in one go. A practical way to start is with one call type, such as appointment booking, and to expand once you see the results. **How fast does an AI voice agent respond on a call?** MagickVoice agents respond in under 300 milliseconds, so the conversation feels natural rather than robotic. ## Contact - Aria, the MagickVoice AI voice agent (24/7, English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi): +91-80653-90179 - Team phone: +91 81068 26709 - Sales: contact@magickvoice.com - General: info@magickvoice.com - App: https://app.magickvoice.com/login - Docs: https://docs.magickvoice.com/ - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/magickvoice - YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MagickVoiceAgent - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/magickvoiceai/ - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/magickvoice/ - Product Hunt: https://www.producthunt.com/p/magickvoice
