AI voice calling

Can a customer opt out of future AI calls? How does that work?

Yes; opt-outs are recorded on the contact and checked before every outbound call, so an opted-out customer is never dialed by Current again.

Yes. Any customer can opt out of AI calls, and once they do, Current will not place another outbound call to them. The opt-out is stored on their contact record and checked before every single outbound call, not just at the time they opted out.

How a customer opts out:

  • On a call. If a customer tells Current they do not want these calls anymore, Current records the opt-out on the spot and confirms it before ending the call.
  • Through your team. Anyone in your workspace can set the opt-out directly on the contact record in Coastline. Open the contact and flag them out of AI calls; it takes effect immediately.

What the opt-out covers: outbound AI calls placed by Current, such as appointment reminders, post-job follow-ups, and invoice reminders. It does not block the customer from calling you; if an opted-out customer dials your business number, Current still answers like it would for anyone else, since they initiated that call. It also does not stop your team from calling them personally. The distinction matters because servicing contact and marketing contact carry different expectations.

Honoring opt-outs is not just good manners; it is what a customer who asked you to stop expects, and it keeps complaint rates down. Coastline enforces the opt-out mechanically before each dial, so a busy week can never override a customer's request. Your business stays responsible for the calling rules that apply to it. This is general information, not legal advice; check with a professional if you are unsure.

One practical tip: if a customer opts out but still wants a specific reminder ("just text me instead"), note that on the contact record. The opt-out applies to AI calls; your other channels are unaffected.
