One call

Nothing to set up first

If your phone can dial a number, it works. The number you call from is all we need.

  1. Call CallSitter

    The greeting tells you the price. You pay only if a person picks up.

  2. Dial through

    Say or key the business number, then get through the menu and ID questions yourself.

  3. Press **, hang up

    We keep your place in line. Your phone is free for calls, dictation, anything.

  4. Pick up when we ring

    A real person answered. Press 1 and you're talking.

  5. Check your log

    A text brings a link to your call log. On a landline, call back and press 7.

Your call log

See for yourself what we kept

Every call ends with a log that shows what we kept, what we blacked out, and what we never had.

What we kept

The business you called, the times, the wait the line announced, when a person picked up and how it ended.

What we blacked out

Numbers, names, emails and addresses in the hold messages are removed before anything is saved. You see the label, never the original.

What we never had

Anything you said or keyed, anything the person who answers says, your conversation and any audio. We only listen to the hold while you're gone, and stop the moment you join.

Your phone stays free

Not stuck on hold, even for an hour

Hold features built into some phones keep the call open on your phone. CallSitter keeps the line open in the cloud, so your phone has no call on it at all.

Questions

Good to know

Do I need to sign up?

No. You call when you need it. The number you call from is how we ring you back.

How do I know it's still holding?

On a smartphone, the link we text you shows the hold live, like "Your estimated wait is 25 minutes." On a landline, we text or call with the lines that matter.

What if they offer to call me back?

We spot the offer and text you. Say yes and we ring you in for a few seconds so you can accept it yourself.

What if the agent hangs up before I get there?

We ring you within seconds of a person picking up and tell them you're on the way. If they still hang up, one reply starts the call again.

Is the person who answers told?

Yes. They hear a short line saying an automated hold assistant is holding for you, that you're joining in seconds, and that nothing is being recorded. CallSitter never answers security questions or speaks for you.

Can I call 911 through CallSitter?

No. Emergency numbers, premium-rate lines and personal phones are blocked. For an emergency, dial 911 directly.

Can I delete my call log?

Yes, with one tap on the log. It deletes itself after 30 days either way.

Where does it work?

US phone numbers calling US businesses, at launch.

Waitlist

Never sit on hold again

CallSitter is coming to the US soon. The waitlist opens shortly.
