Solda AI vs Telli (2026)

Solda says its agents integrate with popular CRM platforms for a unified workflow and learn from the customer's CRM, and that CRM and data warehouse integration helps resolve issues on the first try. Solda also promises automated data entry, email outreach and reporting, and help for reps in scheduling meetings. It names no CRM, data warehouse or other system, and does not say what the agent writes back into one, such as call logging or payment links. The agents run the full sales cycle and close deals in use cases such as loan upsells, collections and card activation.

Agents run pre built or custom HTTP tools during the call, and telli integrates natively with Salesforce and HubSpot, calendars (Calendly, Cal.com, HubSpot Meetings, Zeeg, custom), Make, Zapier, n8n, Slack and Teams, with a contact lookup webhook for the customer's own systems.

A customer hands over ten recorded calls and its sales script, Solda sets up and trains the agent on day one, the agent starts on live leads on day two, and sales operations expand from day three. The agent then runs the conversation through follow ups and callbacks, and on the support side it answers, routes and manages calls. Solda names no branching flow the customer edits, no workflow builder and no routing among several agents.

Visual workflows start on call ended, contact created or updated, a schedule or an incoming webhook and chain HTTP requests, contact updates, SMS, WhatsApp, email, CRM records and call scheduling, with If/else and Switch nodes for branching, beside an auto dialer with retry strategies.

Agents place outbound calls and answer incoming ones around the clock, handling follow ups and callbacks across 24 simultaneous lines at peak hours and up to 100, so calls start from leads, incoming customer calls and scheduled outreach, not from staff. Cold calls to business prospects, collection calls and calls to customers who did not finish registering are among the outbound jobs.

SourceSolda AI, solda.ai/ai-phone-calls and solda.airead 2026-10-06

Calls start from the auto dialer's schedules and retry strategies, API scheduled calls, inbound calls on telli or imported numbers, and workflows triggered by contact events, schedules and webhooks, with SMS and WhatsApp alongside voice.

Agents are trained within 24 hours on ten of the customer's recorded calls and its sales script, ready for live leads the next day, so what the agent knows about the offer and how to pitch it is set when it is trained. Solda names no knowledge base, document library or retrieval over the customer's material during a call.

SourceSolda AI, solda.ai/ai-phone-callsread 2026-10-06

Knowledge bases of the customer's product guides, FAQs, policies and procedures (PDF, Word, Markdown, text) are searched by the agent during calls and re processed automatically whenever documents are added or removed, one knowledge base per agent of up to five documents (about 1,500 pages).

The agent keeps the full context of a conversation while it switches between voice and messaging, and it handles follow ups and callbacks. Solda does not say whether it keeps a record of each customer from one conversation to the next, or how long such a record would last.

What carries between calls is the contact record and its custom properties, which agents read as variables and workflows update. That is the customer's contact data model, and there is no memory layer with its own scope and lifetime.

Solda presents the agent as able to close deals on its own and at scale, and has called its voice AI fully controllable, while also saying AI enhances human call agents rather than replacing them by taking over repetitive tasks. It names no approval step, escalation to staff or setting that limits what the agent may say or offer on a call.

Each agent has a transfer number for complex issues or sales handovers and calls can be watched in live monitoring, but no person approves an agent action before it commits.

SOC 2, HIPAA and EU AI Act badges are displayed on the site, and the company says it uses industry standard encryption for data in transit and at rest, encrypts conversations and follows data protection rules such as GDPR. Solda names no single sign on, user roles or permissions for the customer's team, and publishes no security page or audit report.

telli claims SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA and EU AI Act compliance and EU hosting, and publishes a trust center at trust.telli.com. Settings cover inviting team members and API keys, but there are no roles, permissions or SSO.

Every interaction is collected and structured into data the customer can use to monitor competitor mentions, buying intent, key objections and customer sentiment, alongside analytics on customer behavior and sales performance and call data analyzed to improve engagement. Solda does not say whether the customer gets a recording, transcript or log of what the agent said and did on each call.

Each call record keeps the transcript, recording, an AI summary, a call score, goal attainment and the outcome, beside a performance dashboard and live monitoring, but the tool calls or actions the agent executed are not shown in the call record.

The agents run as a hosted service from AI Runs Sales, Inc., which gives a mailing address in Middletown, Delaware, and phone lines scale on demand at the push of a button. No hosting region is published, and Solda names no choice of region, dedicated environment or customer hosted option.

Hosting is in the EU, by telli's account, a fixed region with no choice, dedicated or customer hosted option. The data retention settings govern how long call data is kept, not where.

Demo agents show the range of jobs. A bank rep offers a loan and encourages upsell options whatever the answer, Clara makes cold calls to introduce digital business accounts to B2B prospects, Matilda calls to secure payment commitments on overdue debts, Sophie calls customers who did not complete registration as an activation follow up, and an assistant qualifies needs. Each agent is trained on the customer's own calls and script, and none is offered as a ready made template. Solda says TBI Bank earns an extra $1M or more every month with its agents.

Customers build agents in telli's no code builder with pre built in call actions and cookbooks, and use case pages describe lead qualification, reactivation, payment reminders and support, but no named packaged agents or agent templates are offered.

The agents work through speech recognition and AI generated responses, speak in many languages and are trained on the customer's own calls and script. Solda names no model provider and no way for the customer to choose a model.

telli calls itself model agnostic across OpenAI, Google Gemini, ElevenLabs and Cartesia and lets customers pick a voice for each agent, but the thinking model cannot be changed, so telli chooses the LLM and only the voice is the customer's choice.

A REST API covers agents, calls (get, list, initiate, schedule, batch), contacts and contact properties and phone numbers, with bearer token auth and HMAC signed webhooks for call ended, rescheduled, dialer and contact status events, and telli runs an MCP server at mcp.telli.com with OAuth.

Solda optimizes conversion by running A/B tests on its agents, and for banks and insurers it says it continuously refines the AI models to improve accuracy and efficiency after launch. It reports a detection rate of about 1%, virtually indistinguishable from a human rep, and says 99% of people believe they are talking to a person. Solda does not say how tests are set up or how their results are read.

Every call is scored for logical flow, clarity and satisfaction and marked on whether the agent reached its goal, scoring the agent's output after deployment, and refine your agent and feedback system guides explain how to act on those results. There is no test harness before release.
