MCP serverEverything else

Then ask your AI: use AlterPhone MCP

From the project's README

As published by marius-bardan/alterphone-mcp in README.md.

Let your AI assistant make real phone calls.

AlterPhone MCP is a hosted Model Context Protocol server. Connect it to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other MCP client, and the assistant can dial a real phone number, hold a spoken conversation in one of 12 languages, and report back what was said: book or reschedule appointments, ask a business a question, negotiate, confirm an order, screen a caller, run a survey.

  • Server URL: https://mcp.alterphone.app/mcp (Streamable HTTP)
  • Registry name: app.alterphone/phone-calls in the official MCP Registry
  • Auth: OAuth 2.1 with PKCE and dynamic client registration. Sign in with Google or Apple on first use.
  • Billing: prepaid credits, 100 credits per US dollar, per started minute at the destination rate (about 8 credits per minute to the US). Same account and balance as the AlterPhone app.

Quick start

Claude (claude.ai and Claude Desktop)

Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → enter https://mcp.alterphone.app/mcp → complete the sign-in.

ChatGPT

Settings → Connectors → create a connector with the server URL https://mcp.alterphone.app/mcp → complete the sign-in. Custom MCP connectors require developer mode on your plan.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http -s user alterphone https://mcp.alterphone.app/mcp

Cursor, Windsurf and other clients with an MCP config file

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "alterphone": {
      "url": "https://mcp.alterphone.app/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Clients that only run local (stdio) servers

This package is a thin bridge for that case. It delegates to mcp-remote, which performs the browser sign-in, caches the tokens locally and forwards every message to the hosted server:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "alterphone": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "alterphone-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Requires Node.js 18 or newer. Set ALTERPHONE_MCP_URL to point the bridge at a different server.
