Asterisk is the open-source engine behind a large share of the world's telephony. We run it as a managed platform with AI voice agents in front: you keep control of the call path and the data, without per-seat licensing dictating how you operate.

## What it does

Builds, hosts and manages Asterisk — dial plans, trunks, recording, security and scaling — with AI voice agents and integrations layered on top.

## Where it creates value

The infrastructure layer of voice. It determines what every downstream stage can do, and whether call data is yours to analyse or locked inside a vendor platform.

## Why it cannot be ignored

Per-seat voice licensing punishes growth, and closed platforms keep your call data. Asterisk removes both constraints — provided it is engineered and maintained properly, which is where self-managed deployments usually fail.

## What you get

- **No per-seat ceiling** — Scale lines and users without a licence renegotiation every time the team grows.
- **Your data, your call path** — Recordings, transcripts and routing logic stay in infrastructure you own and can audit.
- **Managed, not abandoned** — Patching, security, trunk failover and capacity handled as a service — the part self-hosted voice usually gets wrong.
