You describe your campaign once and a Data Monster CLO matches you with verified AI transfer vendors, and you pay for the transfers created.
What is an AI live transfer?
An AI live transfer replaces the first human step. Instead of a person making the first call and screening the prospect, an AI voice agent does it. The AI follows your script, asks your qualifying questions, and listens to the answers. When the prospect fits your criteria, the call is handed to your agent live.
The result is the same as a traditional live transfer, a real person on the line who is ready to talk, with an AI doing the screening work in front. Because the AI can work many calls at once and does not need breaks, it is suited to high volume campaigns with consistent qualifying questions.

How to write an AI qualifying script
An AI voice agent follows the script you give it, so clarity matters. Write short questions with specific answer choices. Include how the AI should respond to common objections, how it should handle a request to speak to a person and when it should end the call. Keep the opening honest about who is calling and why.
| Element | Guidance |
|---|---|
| Opening | Identify the company and the reason for the call |
| Questions | Short, one idea each |
| Objections | Scripted, polite responses |
| Human request | Transfer or end the call as requested |
| Close | Confirm qualification before connecting |
AI calling and regulation
Regulators have indicated that AI-generated voices can fall under existing rules for automated and prerecorded calls, which generally require consent. Rules vary by state and continue to change. Ask vendors how consent is captured and stored, how AI use is disclosed and how opt-outs are honored, and confirm your obligations with your attorney. This page is educational and not legal advice.
What makes a good AI to human handoff
- β‘SpeedThe connect should happen in seconds.
- π§ΎContextYour agent should know the answers the AI collected.
- ποΈRecordingRecord calls for QA and disputes.
- πFallbackIf no agent is free, route to a backup instead of dropping the call.
