These upcoming TCPA changes (effective April 11, 2025) will significantly impact AI voice agents, cold calling systems, SMS campaigns, and chatbots—especially those used in outbound lead generation or marketing. 🔧 1. Cold Calling with AI Voice Agents Major Impact: AI voice agents that make outbound cold calls (even if "live" or interactive) must comply with stricter consent rules. Express Written Consent Required: You can no longer rely on broad or bundled consent. Each AI call needs prior written, specific, and individual consent per seller. No “Partner” Sharing: AI systems that rely on shared databases of leads across multiple clients (e.g., lead brokers) will be in violation unless each client has their own direct consent. Reduced Revocation Window: Opt-outs must be honored within 10 business days, so AI systems need near-instant sync with opt-out databases. 💬 2. SMS & Chat Message Campaigns Major Impact: Text and chatbot communications must now be tightly aligned with how, when, and where the user gave consent. One Seller Only: If your chatbot or SMS campaign is promoting multiple products/brands, that’s now a no-go unless each has distinct consent. Topical Relevance Required: Consent given on a skincare site, for example, cannot be used to send texts about unrelated offers like insurance. Broadened Opt-Out Methods: Systems must allow users to opt out via any reasonable method—not just by texting “STOP.” AI chatbots need NLP logic to understand opt-outs like “Don’t message me anymore” or “Leave me alone.” 🔍 3. Record Keeping & Compliance Tracking Major Impact: AI platforms need to store consent logs, timestamps, opt-out requests, and proof of disclosures for each recipient. If you're running multiple campaigns or using third-party AI cold call platforms, you need to confirm that they log and store this data securely. ✅ To Stay Compliant with AI-Powered Outbound Campaigns You’ll need to: ✅ Collect clear, written, per-seller consent. ✅ Log who consented, when, where, and how (with proof).

In this video, I will show you how to create the ultimate appointment booking automation for AI Voice Agents. This Make.com automation will enable booking, cancelling, rescheduling, and checking calendar availability. It will work directly via webhook so that you can connect it to Vapi, Retell, Bland, Synthflow, and so on. If you liked this video, drop a comment on the video—it helps more than you think!

Hey there fellas, My name is Mihir, I am currently building my inbound AI voice agent service, which takes inbound calls for businesses and books appointments for them. I already have a working inbound agent ready to plug in for any business and am working on several others. Now, I am shifting towards booking meetings for myself and closing clients for this agent to start some active revenue in order to refine my services further and build client trust & testimonials. As I drift further towards booking sales meetings, I have less time to work on developing new agents and automations for my company to sell. Hence, I need a developer, be it a coder or non-coder (I am a non-coder myself), for building new agents; the profits & split can be discussed in private, and I would love to hear from all of you. Cheers.

Hey All. I am new here and not sure if this is applicable. But thought since peeps are into AI and Automations, I would ask... Do you know anyone who can help me with Make .com or n8n .com automations? Short version, trying to set up HL Ecommerce Store, when product purchase workflow triggers, I need it to send to either Make or n8n (both connected), but then I need either Make or n8n to translate it to XML or whatever means for ShipStation to be able to read, and fulfill the order. I've been trying for a few weeks to no avail, and I can't seem to figure out what I am getting wrong...
