Can Claude make phone calls? Yes, here's how it works

Bland’s Agent Phone Plan enables Anthropic’s Claude AI clients, including Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and versions supporting custom connectors, to make outbound calls to U.S. and Canadian phone numbers through a Bland-provided number. Users connect Claude to Bland through Bland’s MCP server, typically by signing in with a Bland account or, in some clients, using an API key, and can ask Claude to call businesses, relay questions, and summarize responses in the terminal or app. Claude’s tool-approval prompts are recommended because Bland’s server does not independently request confirmation before placing calls. Calls follow the user’s instructions but do not automatically complete actions such as booking an appointment unless the user requests a follow-up call, and urgent situations should be handled directly by the user. The plan supports one simultaneous call per account, up to 20 calls per hour and 50 per day, with a shared 1,000-minute daily allowance for incoming and outgoing calls and a 60-minute outbound-call limit. It costs $9.99 for the first month and $19.99 monthly afterward, while a Claude subscription is purchased separately.
