Agency-tier outbound puts more people on the phone and keeps every callback yours. AI Drip-Ins turn those callbacks into qualified transfers. Walk it from the outbound most agencies buy today to the one you could be running.
01Outbound dialer vendors
Rented numbers. Rented leads.
A typical vendor dials on shared, out-of-state numbers that carriers flag as spam, so most people never pick up. The lead stays theirs unless the call connects, and when someone calls back, the vendor gets the call. You pay for every dial and keep a fraction of what it creates.
Out-of-area caller ID
Spam-flagged numbers
Callbacks go to the vendor
02NextGen outbounds
Better leads, on a dialer that reaches people.
DNC-scrubbed outbounds with lead details, on a predictive multi-line dialer. A short “hello?” gets through as a person, machines get your voicemail drop, and AI works every call: the lead fills itself in and Carrier Waterfall™ ranks what to pitch.
Predictive, multi-line
People, not machines
AI on every call
03On the Agency tier
Twice the pickups, and every callback is yours.
Every dial goes out from a local number with your agency’s name, on a pool we keep clean. On our own floor, that doubled live pickups, and local calls ran longer. Every lead is yours on the dial, so the people who missed you call your floor back, not a vendor.
Region-matched caller ID
2× live pickups*
Owned on the dial
04Plus AI Drip-Ins on the callbacks
Callbacks that arrive qualified.
The callbacks your dialing creates are answered by AI agents, day or night. They ask the qualifying questions, then offer only the callers worth an agent’s time on every desk at once. Your closers spend their minutes closing, and leads you already paid to dial turn into sales without buying another one.
Answered 24/7
Pre-qualified transfers
No callback left behind
05The result
Supercharged outbound.
More volume, a higher contact rate, higher conversion and a lower cost per sale than any comparable outbound option. Not from one trick, but from every layer feeding the next.
Higher volumeMore dials, plus the callbacks they create
Volume isn’t only how many numbers you dial. It’s how many people pick up. Here is what the person you’re calling sees, step by step.

Who picks upIllustration
01 · The usual outbound
A stranger’s number, with a warning.
Most outbound runs on numbers from somewhere else, shared by thousands of dials until carriers flag them. Harold in Tampa sees an Omaha number and “Spam risk”, and lets it ring.
02 · Region-matched
Every dial from a number near the lead.
On the Agency tier, every dial comes from a number that matches the region of the lead you’re calling. Calling Tampa? Harold sees an 813 number.
And a local number changes the call after the pickup, too. People answer a number from their own area expecting someone nearby, not a call center, so the first seconds go to listening instead of deciding whether to hang up. On our own floor, local calls were 38% more likely to reach three minutes.
03 · A managed pool
Several numbers per region, kept clean.
You get a pool of numbers in each region. We check their reputation against every carrier on a schedule. A number that gets flagged is rested, and a new one is set up for you automatically, so every dial goes out on a clean number.
04 · Your name
Your agency’s name on the call.
Caller ID with your agency’s name is set up on every number in your pool, automatically. Harold sees a local number, no warning, and a name he can trust.

Familiar feels safe.People pick up, and keep listening to, what looks like it comes from their own community. An out-of-state number reads as a stranger before a word is said.
No warning, no wall.A clean number on every carrier never arrives labelled “Spam risk”, so the call starts at zero, not in a hole.
Listening, not screening.The first seconds of a call decide the rest. A warmer start is more time on the pitch and less on keeping them on the line.
How we measured: every outbound dial on the NextGen platform from Aug 31 to Oct 21, 2026, leaving out dials that never placed. A pickup is a live person answering. “Local” is caller ID from an area code in the lead’s state. Before and after compares the weeks before and after the managed pool went live on Sep 20, while lead lists also changed. The 3-minute figure compares local and non-local calls inside the same campaign and week, so the list is the same and only the number differs. Your results will vary.
Your number pool
A pool that keeps itself clean.
Nobody on your floor has to watch a number, buy a number, or wonder why pickups dropped. The pool does it on its own.

Most vendors keep the callbacks you create.
They feed you their outbound dials. When those leads call back, the calls go to the vendor. You did the dialing. Someone else gets the callback.

Callbacks from your missed outbounds are yours to route however you want. Out of the box, they ring a free agent, and when nobody’s free, they go to everyone.

Take itOn every desk
Our AI agents, or bring your own
Host as many of our qualification agents as you want, or connect your own AI agents (BYOA). Either way they work your callbacks the same way.
They work like your floor
AI agents arm a desk, show their status, and every call they take is recorded and transcribed live.
A handful of questions
Age, health, banking and intent, asked before an agent spends a minute.
Hold music, then every desk
Qualified callers wait on hold while the transfer pops up on every desk on your floor.
AI busy? Straight to you
If every AI agent is on a call, the callback routes directly to your floor. Nobody waits.
After hours, it books the follow-up
AI agents keep working when you’re offline, setting up follow-ups so the morning starts with callers who already said yes to a conversation.
Also on the Agency tier
Nothing slips through.
Every number has a voicemail that writes itself down.
Any call to any of your numbers that doesn’t find an available agent or AI agent goes to voicemail, transcribed, so you never miss a call.
Voicemail · transcribedHi, this is Ruth, you called me earlier about the burial policy. I’m home all evening, call me back.

Leads that don’t answer keep getting worked.
Automated, sequenced lead nurturing: every lead you own follows a timed sequence of touches, so the ones who didn’t pick up today come back around without anyone having to remember.

For newer agents
Feed them business.
Newer agents usually start on outbound, where the calls are coldest and the rejection is hardest. That’s where most of them quit. On the Agency tier with AI Drip-Ins, more people pick up, the first seconds are warmer, and some of the callers they get have already said yes to a conversation. They learn on conversations, not voicemails.

More at-bats
Twice the live pickups on our floor* means twice the real conversations to learn on, in the same hours.
Warmer first seconds
A local number with your agency’s name. Local calls were 38% more likely to reach three minutes*. Less rejection to absorb.
Callers who already said yes
AI Drip-Ins hand over callbacks that have answered the age, health, banking and intent questions. The easiest call a new agent will ever get.
A script that walks them
Script Walker™ puts your script on the desk, one click per answer, and the right rebuttal shows up when the objection does.
The carrier, already ranked
Carrier Waterfall™ ranks the plan to pitch from what the caller said, and the lead and sale form fill themselves in.
A coach in their ear
Team leads listen, whisper or barge on any live call, and nobody gets a call from a state they can’t write.
The difference for a new agent usually isn’t talent. It’s how many real conversations they get before they give up. *Measured on our own floor. See the method above.
And the whole desk comes with it
More pickups, on a floor built to close them.
Every Agency outbound call lands on the full NextGen desk: the dialer, the AI on the call, and the tools that turn a conversation into a policy on your book.
The same DNC-scrubbed outbounds with lead details you get today, dialed from local numbers that carry your agency’s name, on a number pool we keep clean. Every lead you dial, and every call it sends back, belongs to you.
Region-matched dials a local number for every lead
A pool kept clean checked on every carrier, rested, replaced
How is this different from the outbound plan I have now?
The leads are the same quality: DNC-scrubbed outbounds with lead details. What changes is who picks up and who owns what. Every dial goes out on a local, agency-named number from a pool we keep clean, and every lead you dial and every callback it creates is yours.
Do I own the leads I dial?
Yes, from the moment you dial them, not only when the call connects. An unanswered dial is still your lead to work again.
What happens when a lead calls back?
The callback comes to your floor, never to a vendor. By default it rings an available agent; if everyone is on a call, it pops up on every desk so any agent can take it and end their current call. You can change how callbacks route.
Does a local number really make a difference?
On our own floor, yes. Across 39,694 outbound dials, live pickups doubled (14.0% to 28.2%) after dialing moved to the managed, region-matched pool. Comparing local and non-local caller ID inside the same campaign and week, local calls were 38% more likely to reach three minutes (7.3% vs 5.3%). People treat a number from their own area as a neighbor, not a call center.
Will my numbers get flagged as spam?
Your pool has several numbers per region. Their reputation is checked against every carrier on a schedule, a flagged number is rested, and a new one is set up automatically with your agency’s name already on it.
What do the AI agents ask?
A handful of pre-qualification questions on age, health, banking and intent. Once a caller qualifies, the AI puts them on hold with music and offers the transfer on every desk on your floor.
Does this help newer agents?
That’s who it helps most. Newer agents usually start on outbound. With twice the live pickups on our floor, warmer local calls, and AI Drip-Ins handing over callers who are already qualified, they get far more real conversations to learn on, with Script Walker™, rebuttals, Carrier Waterfall™ and a team lead’s whisper on the desk with them.
Can I bring my own AI agent?
Yes. Host any number of our AI agents, or bring your own (BYOA). They arm a desk, show their status, and are recorded and transcribed like any agent.
What if every AI agent is busy, or it’s after hours?
If all AI agents are on calls, the callback routes straight to your floor. After hours, AI agents keep answering and set up follow-ups for when you’re back.
