Your call routing, on one canvas

This is dialnote's Call Flow Editor: the visual canvas where you decide how every call gets answered. Direct customers to sales when they want to buy and support when they need help. No receptionist required, and no coding: add a block, connect it, save. The flow you see is the flow callers get.

This is the Call Flow Editor, drawn to scale

Every block below is a real node type, arranged the way the app's own starter flows arrange them.

Who hears what, and when?

Play your own recording or type the words and pick a voice: text-to-speech speaks 40+ languages with premium neural voices, so your automated IVR sounds authentically like your business. Add announcements for promotions or hours anywhere in the flow.

Included with every plan

Menu greeting

“Thanks for calling. We’re open Monday to Friday, 9 to 6.”

🌐 40+ languagesNeural voicesOr an MP3 you host

Who rings, in what order?

Send calls to whoever's actually working right now. Ring everyone at once, or one by one in an order you choose, and the first to answer takes the call. dialnote never rings a teammate on Do Not Disturb or already on a call, and holds away teammates as a fallback. One-by-one ring order comes with Business plans and up.

What happens after hours, or for VIPs?

A Business Hours block branches every flow: one path while you're open, another after you close, with voicemail, a recorded message, or the AI on the other side. Conditional Routes go further, branching by time of day, day of week, or caller number, so a VIP rings the owner directly.

Where does the AI fit? Anywhere.

Put an AI agent first so it answers every call, tuck it behind a menu key, make it the no-answer fallback, or give it the after-hours branch. It books meetings, sends texts, and hands the call to a teammate the moment someone asks for a human.

Every IVR and call routing block

The full palette the editor works with, and the plans each block ships on. Nest menus, reuse them with Go To Menu, and mix human and AI blocks in one flow.

Answer and greet

  • Phone Menu · Team and up. All 12 keys (0–9, star, pound), pressed or spoken, each with its own label and destination. Separate fallbacks catch no input and wrong keys.

  • Play a Message. Announcements for promotions, hours, or anything callers should hear before they choose.

  • Text-to-speech. Type the greeting and pick a voice: 40+ languages with premium neural voices.

  • Your own audio. Point any prompt at a recording you host (MP3, WAV, or M4A).

  • Go To Menu. Reuse a menu anywhere in the flow, so nested trees stay easy to maintain.

Ring and route

  • Ring Team. Ring everyone at once or one by one, set how long each attempt rings, and the first to answer takes the call.

  • Ring order · Business and up. Reorder who rings first; the flow follows your list, so the right person always gets first ring.

  • Availability routing. Do Not Disturb and in-a-call teammates never ring; away teammates hold as a fallback wave.

  • Business Hours · Team and up. One branch while you're open, another after close, on each number's own schedule and timezone.

  • Conditional Route. Branch by time of day, day of week, or caller number: VIPs can skip the menu entirely.

  • Forward Call. Send a branch to an outside number when the right person isn't in dialnote yet.

Catch and close

  • Waiting Queue · Pro. Callers hold with music, hear their position and estimated wait, and teammates accept or pass the call.

  • Voicemail. Custom greeting, transcription, and the recording waiting in the number's inbox.

  • Missed-call text-back. An automatic SMS goes to callers you miss, so the conversation continues in text.

  • End Call. A polite goodbye message for branches that should close cleanly.

The AI block

  • AI Agent · with an AI agent (Team and up). Answers first, behind a menu key, as the no-answer fallback, or after hours. It books meetings, sends texts, and checks the calendar mid-call.

  • AI-to-human transfer. Escalation triggers hand the call to a teammate the moment someone asks for a human.

  • AI-to-AI handoff. One agent can pass the caller to another agent with a different specialty.
