Telugu AI Calling Agent: Telugu calls that sound local

Why Telugu
Telugu customers stay on the call when it starts in Telugu
In Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, the first ten seconds decide the call. A Telugu greeting with a respectful "garu" gets attention that an English pitch does not.
Customers then mix English words freely. The agent understands those replies and keeps going, saving every answer and transferring interested callers to your team.

Script tips
Writing a Telugu AI calling script
Spoken Telugu
Write the way people talk on the phone, not bookish Telugu.
Set the second language
Each script has a primary and an optional second language. English is the usual second language; in Hyderabad, Hindi often works better. The agent switches the moment the customer does.
Write numbers the way they are spoken
Prices, dates and times written as people say them avoid mispronunciation and confusion on the call.

FAQ
Telugu AI Calling Agent: common questions
01Can the AI agent speak Telugu?
Yes. Troika's AI calling agent speaks natural Telugu, and each script can add a second language such as English. The agent switches between them mid-call when the customer does.
02Does it understand Telugu mixed with English?
Yes. Customers often mix English words into Telugu, for example for prices, dates and product names, and the agent understands and replies naturally.
03Which other languages are supported?
English, Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Bengali and Malayalam. Each script uses one primary and one optional second language.
04Is there an extra fee for regional languages?
No. Every supported language is included at the same per-second rate.
05Can I hear a demo in Telugu?
Yes. Request a free demo and our team will set up a live AI call in Telugu with your own script.
06Can one campaign call both Telugu and Hindi speakers?
Yes, by setting Telugu as the primary and Hindi as the second language, or the other way round for Hindi-first lists.
07Is AI calling legal in India?
AI calling is used legally in India when it follows the same rules as any business calling: TRAI's telemarketing regulations, respect for the DND (Do Not Disturb) registry, permitted calling hours and a clear way to opt out.
- Use opt-in or responsibly sourced data, ideally people who enquired with you.
- Call within permitted hours. We schedule campaigns generally between 9 AM and 8 PM.
- Honour opt-outs: when someone says "don't call me", the agent ends politely and the number is skipped in future campaigns.
This is general guidance, not legal advice. Compliance depends on your campaign intent and your data.
08How much does it cost?
A one-time setup and prepaid credits billed per second of talk time, with every supported language included at no extra fee. See AI calling pricing.
