These are the core terms you’ll encounter throughout the platform. Keep them in mind as you set up your first assistant and explore more advanced features.
AI assistant / agent
A configurable bot you set up to handle inbound or outbound calls. It defines the conversation style, voice, and behavior through a system prompt.
Campaign (outbound)
A batch of calls made to a list of contacts or leads. You can upload a CSV, connect Google Sheets, or integrate your CRM to launch calls automatically.
Inbound number
A dedicated phone number that customers dial to reach your AI assistant. You can rent a number from the platform or connect via SIP/PBX.
Outbound caller ID
The number displayed on the customer’s phone when your AI calls them. You can rent a number from the platform or verify an existing number to use as the caller ID.
Intellixent’s built-in workflow platform — similar to Zapier or Make. It connects triggers (such as “call ended”) to actions (such as “send an email” or “update a Google Sheet”) without any coding.
Specialized capabilities your AI assistant can use during a call — for example, transferring a call, ending a call, scheduling an appointment, or calling an external webhook.
Knowledge base
A collection of documents (PDFs, websites, text files) that your AI assistant can reference during calls to provide accurate answers to customer questions.
Post-call variables
Data the AI extracts automatically after each call — such as status, summary, and formatted_transcript — that you can use in automations and follow-up workflows.
Call variables
Dynamic data that personalises each call, such as customer_name, email, or company. You define these in your assistant settings and pass values when creating leads or campaigns.
Lead status
The current state of a lead in your system: Created, Scheduled, Processing, Completed, Rescheduled, or Max Retries.
Campaign status
The current state of a campaign: Draft, In Progress, Paused, or Completed.
Webhook
A URL endpoint on your server that receives data when specific events occur (such as a call ending), enabling real-time integrations with external systems.
SIP integration
A method to connect your existing phone system or VOIP provider with Intellixent without renting new numbers from the platform.
