Judging by your username you're in Israel?

If so just get yourself an Israeli mobile virtual number (which can receive SMS)

Haha. No I'm not from Israel. Just a Star Trek fan:). But thanks for the info. My issue with that is that I don't want to give a way my phone number, and I certainly don't want to pay for a service that gives me a phone number.

Microsoft really dropped the ball with Skype during Covid..

At FlyNumber we saw the decline early, we used to be able to point DID phone numbers directly to Skype accounts - it was great, of course Microsoft killed that around the time of their acquisition ... but why? All it did was force end-users to using SIP clients.

They went all-in on Teams just before the start of COVID, and MS don't typically support multiple overlapping products like Google do (although the number of task management products may be a counter-argument to that).

Now this is what I'm talking about — this checks all the boxes for me.

I was looking at "Agent builders" for a while now and nothing really stood out. They all seemed to use a "node" type structure, while I was looking to tell something what I need using natural language.

The only thing that came close was Vessium, but I never heard back after adding myself to the waiting list weeks ago. I also wasn’t so hot about their questions either — "Are you cool with paying for a product just to try it," or something to that effect. I’ll admit though, I said yes. =)

Either way, congrats on the launch and wishing you much success.

Thanks! We wanted to have the copilot planning and building out agents be a core part of Rowboat (like how Cursor works with code).

The have info on Docker in their GitHub readme

Docker Although not recommended, you can also run mox with docker image r.xmox.nl/mox, >with tags like v0.0.1 and v0.0.1-go1.20.1-alpine3.17.2, see >https://r.xmox.nl/r/mox/. See https://github.com/mjl-/mox/blob/main/docker->compose.yml to get started.

New docker images aren't (automatically) generated for new Go runtime/compile >releases.

It is important to run with docker host networking, so mox can use the public IPs >and has correct remote IP information for incoming connections (important for >junk filtering and rate-limiting).

They need to add a pricing page, no one expects to find pricing solely in the FAQ's.

This is where voice AI agents can really help and screen the calls. Route the big fish to Alec Baldwin and the tiny prospects to the guy getting the coffee.

and the https://www.compuserve.com/ site is still up, stuck in the 90's.

There were things like flat monthly fees but operators would also fill a ticket or in other words manually record long distance calls (ie: their duration, how far apart the 2 parties were etc.).

A fun post from the founder of FlyNumber (me) and how AI has pretty much changed everything.

Are there any other countries who use their area codes (in the cultural sense) the same way Americans do?
