Is AI outbound calling actually working for anyone?
Inbound AI voice automation seems to be gaining traction, but I am curious about outbound. We experimented with AI outbound calling for lead follow ups and re engagement campaigns. What worked best: - Short qualification calls - Clear objective - Fast escalation to human when needed What failed: - Long scripted conversations - Overly persuasive language - Trying to fully replace a closer The AI voice agent performs better when it acts as a qualifier rather than a salesperson. The platform we are currently using for both inbound and outbound workflows is Feather. What stood out was that it allowed us to use the same conversational logic across use cases instead of building separate rigid flows. Is anyone here seeing real ROI from AI outbound calls yet, or is most adoption still inbound focused?
