INDUSTRY · UTILITIES

SIP trunking and DIDs for electric, gas, and water utilities.

Inbound customer care plus outbound notifications — outage alerts, bill reminders, service appointments. High-trust routes with A-level STIR/SHAKEN.

V.01 / USE CASESTYPICAL USE CASES

What utilities customers route with us.

  • Customer service inbound lines
  • Outage notification outbound (high concurrency during events)
  • Bill reminder and payment arrangement outbound
  • Service appointment confirmations and reschedules
  • Emergency broadcast / critical infrastructure comms
V.02 / PROOFANSWER RATES MATTER

A-level STIR/SHAKEN on every eligible call.

Most providers quietly sign at B- or C-level to save cost. We don't. Every eligible US and Canada call is signed at A-attestation, included in every plan. Your answer rates are what drive the P&L — we don't compromise them to save a dollar on routing.

HOW WE OPERATE THIS VERTICAL

Utilities (power, water, gas, telecom customer service) run voice infrastructure with two distinct operating modes — business-as-usual steady-state, and emergency/outage mode where call volumes spike 50–100× within 20 minutes. Our standard trunks handle the business-as-usual traffic without comment; the emergency-mode burst pattern is what matters. We've routed major-event traffic for regional utilities during hurricanes and ice storms, where the IVR-plus-agent-escalation flow processes 80K+ calls/day for a 48-hour window with zero degradation. A-level STIR/SHAKEN is critical here because utilities-originated calls (outbound alerts, service-restoration updates) get flagged by mobile analytics aggressively if the attestation chain is weak — a "Scam Likely" label on a genuine power-outage alert is a public-safety problem. Emergency-notification platforms (CodeRED, Everbridge) peer directly into our network via BYOC.
