SIP Trunking
Technology that transmits phone calls over the internet instead of physical phone lines.
SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) Trunking allows businesses to make and receive phone calls over the internet — without physical phone lines. It's the foundation for connecting a Voice AI agent to a phone number. Benefits: lower cost, phone number flexibility, and ability to route calls to AI agents automatically. Yappr manages all SIP Trunking behind the scenes — you simply choose a number and the agent starts answering. According to IDC, 70% of businesses migrated to SIP Trunking by 2025 (Source: IDC, 2024).
