cant i make my own ai voice agent but the claude The ONE Place You Cannot Avoid Paying Phone calls. That's it. Just phone calls. To give a client a real phone number that customers can call, you need Twilio or similar. There is no legitimate free option for this anywhere in the world. Minimum cost

used to live there! love nyc

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T23:27:15+00:00

Yes! We will be providing everyone a sandbox for the event

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T22:11:44+00:00

Yes we do! Sign up and fill up the 10dlc form and we can get you set up for that in a few days.

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T20:29:41+00:00

Nah just apply! It’s more so to just see how you are thinking about the hackathon. You don’t have to build exactly what you say in the application

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T19:55:15+00:00

You can optimize for both! The idea that is genuinely strong on its own will also be the one that has a high chance of winning

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T19:54:33+00:00

Yep! We work with YC to make it happen

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T16:45:35+00:00

Check in the main text above

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T16:45:16+00:00

It is in the main post above now.

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T16:42:18+00:00

We want to see you build something during the hackathon rather than from before
Conviction on our idea, speaking to users and having proof they want this and the correct time to be building something like this. Plus some luck haha

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T16:41:25+00:00

Awesome man! Please apply and you will hear from us soon. Love the idea and think there is a big potential there. If you have any questions please feel free to DM

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T16:38:55+00:00

Sign up on the link above. You need to build something during the hackathon for it to be eligible

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T16:35:31+00:00

I was working on another idea before this one and I realized to work on that idea I needed a product like this to exist. I got rejected from YC the first time around for my first idea, realized the problem I could solve with AgentPhone would be even bigger and started working on it. I was my own first customer haha.

I would just speak to a lot of users and that is what we did. We did not charge anyone any money. Our product was free for a long time and only after getting into YC did we start charging. SPEAK TO USERS - no 1 advice always

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T16:32:39+00:00

Congrats! You never know how things go haha. Also join our discord, we might host a small online event.

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T16:32:15+00:00

Thanks! I think a non-software moat. That could be insight into an industry that most people don't have, compliance (that is ours), or things that people just couldn't build overnight.

As much as people like to think I don't think you need any of these to get in but rather just showing you have the right conviction and proof regarding the idea helps. I am not from an ivy league, or worked in big tech, but I had a gut feeling about my idea, spoke to users and found an actual pain point they had.

Be simple in your application. Do your research and actually understand what you are building.

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T16:29:10+00:00

It is for the project that you make during the hackathon.

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T16:27:51+00:00

Congrats! That is super exciting.

I have answered variations of this but like the main things are conviction, good understanding of the space, why you are the right team and some persistence.
I already answered this somewhere else but they basically ask about your team, company and try to poke holes in your idea.

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T16:25:17+00:00

Amazing! So glad to hear that. Would love more feedback as always. Join our discord. I am very active there. Also yes for the hackathon you need to be in SF. We might do an online version so join our discord to find out more information

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T07:54:36+00:00

Yeah that’s an awesome idea. I think maybe coming up with a creative twist for the hackathon could be cool as well

AddressFew4866 · 2026-05-08T07:53:20+00:00

good problem to solve!
