How to Give Meta Muse a Phone Number and Make Calls
Meta Muse can have its own phone number, and it takes about 5 minutes. Copy the business setup prompt from Carly, paste it into Muse and ask it to help you pick a number. You choose the area code and cycle through numbers until you like one. To let Muse place calls, make an API key on the Carly Integrations page and paste it in. Muse can then place calls, receive calls and call new leads the moment they submit a form. Calls can also be kicked off by an email or an incoming call, and Muse connects through Carly to your CRM, so every call is automated and logged. In ChatGPT, Claude and Grok Bot it's even easier: ask about Carly and connect in one click.

"Before Carly, I relied on a Calendly link, but the whole process felt impersonal and not very professional. Carly changed that by handling all the back-and-forth, so I'm no longer stuck in endless email threads trying to line up schedules.
Now Carly reaches out to candidates, shares my real-time availability, lets them pick a slot, then sends a Zoom link and drops it straight into my calendar. She sends reminders to both of us before each call, which has significantly reduced no-shows and last-minute confusion.
On top of scheduling, Carly acts like a full executive assistant, sending me my schedule the night before so I can prepare for each call. It reminds me of the old x.ai assistant, but Carly is noticeably smarter, faster, and better suited to my healthcare recruitment business."
