Automated Call System — Reliably Confirm a Real Person Answered

Posted yesterday

Worldwide

Summary

I need an automated phone-calling system that calls a list of customers and confirms whether a real person actually answered each call. The system should: Read a list of phone numbers from a spreadsheet Call each number automatically Detect whether a real person answered the call Record the outcome of each call back into the spreadsheet — such as: confirmed by a person, no answer, voicemail, busy, or invalid number The most important requirement is accuracy. The result of every call must be correct — especially telling the difference between a real person answering and a voicemail picking up. I need this to work reliably even on larger lists of numbers. I'm open to the best approach to achieve this. It can be built with Python and Twilio, or using any other tool or platform that delivers accurate, dependable results. What matters most is the outcome, not the specific method. Deliverables: A working system that makes the calls and records accurate results Reliable performance on larger call lists Simple instructions so my team can run it easily Please answer these when applying: Have you built an automated phone-calling system before? Share an example. How would you make sure the system correctly tells a real person apart from a voicemail? What platform or tools would you use, and why? How would you handle a large list of numbers reliably without calls failing?
