Overview
System Functions are pre-built capabilities available to all AI agents. Unlike Custom Functions which call external webhooks, System Functions are built into the platform and handle common tasks like ending calls, transferring to humans, and sending messages.
Available Functions
End Call
Allows the agent to hang up when the conversation is complete.
Setting Description Enable/Disable Toggle whether the agent can end calls Condition Customize when the agent should end the call
Default Condition:
End the phone call. Use this when the conversation is complete,
the caller says goodbye, or there is nothing more to discuss.
Custom Condition Examples:
“End the call after confirming the appointment and saying goodbye”
“End the call only after the caller explicitly says goodbye or asks to hang up”
“End the call after completing the order and providing the confirmation number”
When End Call is disabled, calls will only end when the caller hangs up.
Transfer
Transfer the call to another phone number when needed.
Setting Description Enable/Disable Toggle whether the agent can transfer calls Transfer Numbers Configure destination numbers with labels
Configuration:
Go to Agents → Select agent → Functions tab
Enable Transfer toggle
Click Configure to add transfer destinations
Each transfer destination has:
Label : Name the agent uses (e.g., “Sales”, “Support”, “Mobile”)
Phone Number : Destination in E.164 format (+1234567890)
Example Usage:
Caller: "Can I speak to a real person?"
Agent: "Of course, let me transfer you to our support team."
[Agent transfers call to configured support number]

Configuring System Functions
All system functions are configured in the Functions tab of your agent settings:
Navigate to Agents in the sidebar
Select the agent you want to configure
Click the Functions tab
Toggle functions on/off
Click Configure to customize each function
Changes save automatically.
Best Practices
Clear Conditions Write specific end call conditions so your agent knows exactly when to hang up
Label Transfer Numbers Use descriptive labels like “Sales Team” instead of just “Office”
Extract What Matters Only extract data you’ll actually use - too many variables can confuse the AI
Test Thoroughly Make test calls to verify each function works as expected
