Claude on the web, in Claude Desktop and in the mobile apps can place phone calls once you add a calling MCP server as a custom connector. Here are the steps from Anthropic's docs, the plan limits, and a first prompt that checks the connection before anything dials.

OpenClaw connects to remote MCP servers natively, so one command gives your personal agent a phone. We installed OpenClaw on Linux, added call4me, installed the call4me skill from ClawHub, and had OpenClaw place a real call to T-Mobile. Here is every command that worked, the two that didn't, and what the call actually got.

We added call4me to Goose as a remote MCP extension, ran it headless with goose run, and had it call Amazon customer service. Here is the config.yaml that keeps the API key out of the file, the permission mode headless runs need, and what the call actually got.

We called the Social Security Administration's national 800 number with general questions for this guide. The menu asked for a Social Security number; we didn't give one and still got an agent. Here is the menu, the 20 minute hold estimate, what the representative said, and the full 22 minute recording.

We called Costco's membership and warehouse line with general questions and no member number. Here is the touch-tone menu, how long it took to reach a person, what the representative said about prices, refunds, non-members and scams, where Costco's own website says something different, and the full 19 minute recording.

We called AT&T wireless customer service four times for this guide. Two calls never got past the voice system, one hit our own time limit on hold, and one reached a live representative after 44 minutes. Here are the recordings, the route that worked, and what the representative said.

We called Southwest's general questions line, 1-800-I-FLY-SWA, for this guide. Saying \"representative\" put us on hold, and a live reservations agent answered 4 minutes 10 seconds in. She wouldn't take general questions. Here is the route, the full recording, and where Southwest answers them in writing.

We called 1-800-WALMART with general questions for this guide. An AI agent answers first; asking twice for a representative got us a live person. Here's what the rep and the AI each said about hours and refunds, and the full 6 minute recording.

Google, Gemini, Meta Muse, Instinct, Pine, Mitra, Voyp, Genspark and call4me compared by what they call for, who can use them, price, and whether you can join the call.

A real call to Irvine Spectrum clarified a family booking, the evening age cutoff and how eight players would split across challenge rooms.

A real Toronto call secured a private dinner reservation for a group, but left the final menu, price and room capacity to confirm in writing.

The assistant waited through the reservation queue, accepted 7:15 PM instead of 7:00 PM and got an explicit table confirmation.
