AI practice calls
Custral includes a set of practice phone numbers. Calling one of them from the dialer connects you to an AI role-play partner instead of placing a real call, so you can rehearse a pitch or try out the dialer, live transcription, and call analysis without dialing a real person or spending credits.Why use them
- Practice sales calls and objection handling against a realistic, responsive prospect.
- Try the dialer, live transcripts, and post-call analysis end to end before going live.
- Onboard new reps safely, no real customers on the other end.
How it works
Dial one of the practice numbers below and the AI answers in character. Each number plays a different persona and scenario, so you can pick the kind of call you want to rehearse. Speak naturally. Your words are transcribed live and the AI responds in real time, just like a real call.Practice numbers
