CarrierX Voice

Welcome to CarrierX API!

This simple yet powerful RESTful API allows developers to build an entire communications infrastructure for their applications, including voice calls, text messaging, and conferencing.

Direct Inward Dialing (DID) from CarrierX provides a catalogue of domestic as well as international telephone numbers that are available for rent on a monthly basis.

When rented, the phone number can be used for voice and messaging services.

Why Use CarrierX API?

CarrierX offers a geo-distributed infrastructure that delivers incredible voice call clarity at disruptive prices. If you have your own voice application, you can use it to call landline or mobile phones using CarrierX API.

CarrierX owns a wide network of phone numbers—or DIDs—all over the world. Your users do not have to puzzle over how to connect to your VoIP application.

note

Regular phones (both landline and mobile) have certain restrictions and cannot dial directly to a softphone application. In fact, they can only dial to another regular phone using a keypad. That is why CarrierX introduced intermediary DIDs to interconnect regular phones with the software infrastructure.

Users simply dial a number, like they do with any other phones, and connect to a voice application, or to another regular phone without even knowing its number (in the case you want to keep it secret), or to several other users in a conference. Moreover, most often it is a local number they dial, not an international one.
