Learn how to build an AI voice agent powered by Grok Voice 3.0 using a single X Subscription that includes Cursor, Grok Bot, and X Premium. This step by step tutorial walks through building a speech to speech phone agent on a real phone number, with Grok Bot handling appointment booking, CRM updates, and even full computer use for tasks no API can reach. If you're in the voice AI space, this is a unique approach that I think everyone should take a look at! Check it out! 👇

@Brendan Jowett The GrokBot part is what got me thinking. For weird requests it makes a lot of sense, like a client portal with no API. For bookings and changes I'd still keep fixed tools though, because on a live call I want the same result every time. Also around 15:17 Nora brings up the 3pm bookkeeping meeting. In a test that's fine. In real life, if she matches by phone number only, a wife calling from her husband's phone hears his appointment. On my plumbing receptionist the agent opens with "Is this Mike?" and if it's someone else, it treats them as a new caller and never mentions his visit. How long does GrokBot take when it has to open the browser while the caller is waiting?
meta said my whatsapp messages were accepted. none of them were delivered
This was a couple months ago.on a whatsapp agent i was building for a "client". n8n sends the message through the cloud api, the api answers with a message id, everything looks fine. but nobody was receiving anything i spent a whole evening on the wrong problem. i thought it was my token, because session tokens die after an hour or two, so i swapped it for a 60 day one. still nothing what finally showed it was the status webhook. every message came back failed with error 131031, "business account has been locked". meta had locked the whole business portfolio. the whatsapp account itself still showed active and approved, so from the dashboard you can't see it no code fixes that. you appeal through meta's security center and wait. we didn't wait, we moved the number to twilio as the provider and it worked the same day since then every whatsapp workflow i build has a status callback that pings me on telegram when a message fails. the send request alone tells you nothing has meta locked one of your accounts before? how long did the appeal take?
my first real prospect booked the call himself, then didnt show
someone im connected with on linkedin booked 30 min through my calendar link. he helps run a medical clinic so honestly a real fit for a voice agent. i spent the morning preparing my questions 9:30 im on the meet. nobody at 9:31 i emailed him that i was on the call. at 9:50 i sent a second one with a new time later this week, same link. still no reply maybe he just forgot, maybe something came up and he really couldnt. either way i wasnt in a great mood the rest of the day next time im sending a reminder the evening before with one line on what we'll cover, so he has a reason to show up or a chance to move it how do you guys cut no-shows on discovery calls?

@Aurel Babiš @Aurel Babiš adding that to my booking page. his own number is a way better follow-up than "just checking in"
How to get my first client for my ai receptionist agency?
Hi guys, I am Apurv Aditya. I am 17 years old and I am from India. I am starting my ai receptionist agency with a very limited budget. I have learned to make the ai receptionist, but I don't know how to sell it. I tried to do cold calls, but it didn't work for me because I speak broken English and with my Indian accent, they think I am a typical Indian scammer. I also tried to post on fb groups, but it also did not work for me. Right now, I am thinking to try cold calls once again. can anyone guide me how to get my first client? please share your experience.

Same age range here, 16, in Canada. My first paying client didn't come from a cold call either. It came through someone I already knew who told a business owner what I build. And a guy I'm connected with on LinkedIn booked a call with me on his own after reading my posts. Posting about what you build can do the first conversation for you, before anyone hears your accent.
Where do voice agents actually break once they are live?
Not the demo failures. The ones that turn up weeks in, after a client has been using it daily. Reading the threads here on interruptions and handoffs makes me think the demo is the easy part. So for anyone with an agent that's been running on a real client for a few months: what broke that you didn't see coming? Curious whether it tends to be the integrations or the conversation itself.

The one that got me was the message after the call. On a WhatsApp project the send API kept returning a message ID like it worked, but Meta had locked the whole business account (error 131031). The only place it showed up was the delivery status webhook. Same thing with 23 of my SMS on Twilio, all marked failed in the logs while my workflow said sent. Now I check the delivery status of every message, because a successful send tells you nothing.
