Phase 1: Deployment

Connect Twilio

Our High-Speed Sync Engine connects your Twilio account in under 120 seconds — instantly enabling AI Voice and SMS automation.
Zero coding required.

Your Twilio account remains fully yours. TelBuddy simply connects via secure API access, nothing is transferred or migrated.

01

Extract Twilio Keys

Grab your Account SID and Auth Token from the Twilio Console. This secure connection allows TelBuddy to power AI Voice and SMS automation inside your existing Twilio account.

  1. Login to Twilio Console.
  2. Copy Account SID.
  3. Reveal & Copy Auth Token.

🔒 Your Auth Token is encrypted in transit and stored securely. TelBuddy never shares your Twilio credentials and only uses them to authenticate API requests on your behalf.

💡 Helpful Tip

You can connect multiple Twilio numbers or sub-accounts later if your business has multiple locations or departments.
