Dev makes agent call people from real phone number with a $15 bluetooth dongle
Original title: Made my agent call people from my real number, no twilio
A developer shares an open-source setup that lets an agent make calls from their real phone number: the phone pairs to a $15 bluetooth dongle like a car, and an agent running on LiveKit dials, waits for pickup, talks, hangs up and saves the transcript, can answer calls and press keys in phone menus, with recording as a checkbox. MIT licensed, works on Mac and Linux; it can't do two calls at once or hear keys the other side presses.
