Separate voice economics
Pay the agent platform for intelligence and KataTelecom for transport, with destination rates shown separately.
BYOC / voice infrastructure
SIP trunking for AI voice agents
Your agent platform supplies the brain. KataTelecom supplies the voice channel. Connect the agent to customers on the public phone network with international numbers, per-minute carrier rates and capacity sized to concurrent calls.
Session traceillustrative signalling sequence
An AI voice agent connects through a KataTelecom SIP trunk to the public telephone network and then to the customer.
Why BYOC
Keep the carrier layer under your control
Bundled agent minutes can include a platform markup on the voice leg. BYOC leaves prompts and conversation logic with the agent platform while your own SIP trunk carries the call at visible carrier rates.
Own the number layer
Keep your DIDs and choose local campaign numbers where available. Caller ID remains subject to country rules.
Size for concurrent calls
Plan capacity around simultaneous sessions, destinations and the actual call profile.
Compatibility
Test the call path, then name it
Compatibility is named only after a real connection test. A platform logo never substitutes for a call that has completed in both required directions.

Carrier layer
Built for agent traffic, not a demo counter
The trunk is configured around the planned workload. Concurrency, routing and identity conditions are confirmed before production.
- Capacity
- Concurrent sessions
- Ports and throughput are sized to expected agent load and destinations.
- Media
- SIP codecs
- Codec and transport settings follow the tested platform path.
- Numbers
- 120+ countries
- Availability varies by market, stock and verification requirements.
- Commercial
- No long-term contract
- Use per-minute rates and add numbers only where needed.
Catalog entry point
Start with the voice components you need
Number rental and call traffic stay separate as the agent scales.
Current DID catalog floor; country, stock and verification determine the final price.
Current positive catalog floor; the billed rate depends on destination and route.
Sized around the planned session profile rather than a generic ceiling.
Catalog floors are reference points, not a universal quote. Setup, verification and route-specific terms may apply.
Connection path
From agent endpoint to a production call
Three steps keep platform configuration and carrier routing testable.
Share the traffic plan
Send the endpoint, countries, call directions and expected concurrency.
Connect and verify
Configure authentication, codecs and caller ID, then place test calls.
Open production capacity
Approve the route, attach numbers and scale with agent load.
AI voice FAQ
Before the first test call
Connection details and country-specific conditions are confirmed for the actual platform and route.
01What does BYOC mean for an AI voice agent?
The platform handles the conversation; your own KataTelecom SIP trunk carries calls between it and the public phone network.
02How is AI-agent SIP traffic billed?
The carrier leg is billed per minute. Number rental and destination rates are quoted separately, without a long-term contract.
03Which phone number should the agent use?
Choose a number for the campaign market and permitted caller-ID model. Coverage spans 120+ countries, subject to stock, verification and local rules.
04Can the agent place emergency calls?
Emergency calling is not assumed in the standard setup. Availability, configuration and responsibilities must be confirmed in the service agreement before emergency traffic is routed. Keep an alternative way to reach emergency services unless explicitly agreed.
05Is the trunk compatible with my AI voice platform?
A real test confirms signalling, authentication, media, caller ID and the required inbound or outbound flows. Platform names are published only after that connection path is verified.
