About

Samora runs multilingual voice operations for organizations with high-volume calling without requiring engineering teams, call centers, or AI expertise. Many important tasks still depend on phone calls, including customer support, outreach, follow-ups, screening, and intake. But voice AI often fails in production because real callers interrupt, go off-script, switch languages mid-sentence, and speak in local dialects. Teams also worry about safety and compliance, especially when an agent can accidentally make the wrong promise. Samora solves this with voice agents that sound local and follow strict rules. Samora agents handle inbound and outbound calls, collect information, and update internal systems like CRMs, ticketing tools, and ATS platforms. When a call becomes sensitive or uncertain, the agent hands off to a human. It can also follow up over WhatsApp, SMS, or email when needed. With Samora, teams get: 1. Voice agents that work in real conversations, including dialects and code-switching 2. Strict safety controls so agents don’t make unauthorized offers, discounts, or promises 3. Calls that result in completed actions, system updates, and safe human handoff
