Fair questions
What exactly do I get?+
A real business phone number (local or toll-free), with calls, texts, voicemail and email all landing in one unified inbox. Business adds email on your own domain, so hello@yourcompany.com arrives in the same place.
Do I need to know DNS?+
No. Connect a domain you already own and we give you the exact MX, SPF, DKIM and DMARC records to paste into your DNS, then check them for you until they are live.
Why is a card required for the trial?+
SMS fraud. Free tiers on phone-number products get farmed by spammers, and that gets everyone's messages filtered by carriers. A card at signup keeps the network clean so your texts actually deliver. You won't be charged during the 7-day trial.
Is this a burner number app?+
The opposite. Alolu is a business second line: your identity is verified, your number is registered with carriers (A2P 10DLC in the US), and it's built to be the permanent front door of your product.
Can I take calls on my cell?+
Yes. Inside your business hours, calls forward to your own phone; outside them, callers hear your greeting and the voicemail arrives transcribed in your inbox. The iPhone and Android apps carry the same inbox.
What's the AI tier?+
A planned upgrade where an AI employee answers your calls, texts back missed ones, and triages email — running on the same inbox you already have. Nothing to migrate, it just switches on.
