# ClawCall

> ClawCall connects ChatGPT and compatible AI hosts to user-directed phone calls through an OAuth-protected remote MCP server. It calls US +1 numbers in English, navigates phone trees, waits on hold, and returns lifecycle, outcome, transcript, and temporary recording access.

## Connect ChatGPT

- Setup guide: https://clawcall.dev/guides/chatgpt-mcp
- Add the remote Streamable HTTP MCP endpoint in ChatGPT Plugins / custom MCP.
- Choose OAuth; do not paste a ClawCall API key into ChatGPT.
- ClawCall publishes OAuth authorization-server and protected-resource discovery metadata.
- OAuth uses authorization code, PKCE S256, and Dynamic Client Registration.
- Approve only `calls:read` and `calls:write`; disconnecting in ClawCall revokes the connection's token family.
- Verify safely first: ask ChatGPT to check the plan and remaining trial allowance without placing a call.

## Canonical product facts

- The remote MCP server exposes 11 bounded tools.
- `calls:read` covers account allowance, call settings, reserved-number status, call lifecycle/outcome, transcripts, history, and temporary recording access.
- `calls:write` covers user-requested call placement, hangup, and call-setting updates.
- A network outcome does not prove task success; judge only from the transcript evidence actually captured.
- Current calling scope: US +1 destinations and English-language calls only.
- Unlimited Reserve adds a private reserved caller-ID number for outbound calls.
- Unlimited Reserve Plus adds AI inbound answering on an active reserved number.
- Compatible-host availability can depend on the host plan, region, workspace policy, admin settings, and Developer mode.

## ClawCall for real phone work

- ClawCall spans both directions: every paid plan includes outbound AI calling for appointments, billing, cancellations, airlines, restaurants, utilities, queues, and other focused phone errands.
- Unlimited Reserve adds a private reserved caller-ID number. Unlimited Reserve Plus adds AI receptionist behavior on one active reserved number; inbound calls begin with a fixed recording disclosure, then use configured instructions, global voice/personality settings, and an optional handoff number. This is not a broad multi-line, multi-seat contact center or CRM platform.
- For outbound calls, give ClawCall a US +1 destination, a clear user-directed task, known facts, and decision boundaries. It can handle IVR menus, hold time, the live conversation, instructed voicemail, and return the network outcome plus captured transcript evidence.
- Trusted applications can use REST. Compatible AI hosts can use the OAuth-protected hosted MCP connection and its 11 bounded tools without receiving a ClawCall API key.
- Use `/calling` to explore ClawCall’s calling capability, `/ai-phone-call-api` for developer product fit, and `/calling/ai-receptionist-vs-ai-caller` to compare its inbound receptionist and outbound caller modes.
