What is OneInbox?

OneInbox is a voice orchestration platform for building AI agents that handle live voice conversations — over the phone and in the browser. You configure agents, voices, and call behavior through the REST API. OneInbox handles real-time audio, speech recognition, telephony routing, and scaling.

Keys

OneInbox has two kinds of keys. Which one you use depends on where your code runs — that distinction is the whole reason both exist.
KeyStarts withRuns whereCan do
API keyoi_sk_Your server (backend)Everything — create agents, make calls, read data
Publishable keyoi_pk_The browser (frontend)Only start a call — nothing else
Use your API key for everything in this section. For the publishable key, see Web SDK — it’s created differently and used only to let website visitors start a call directly from your site.
Before you make your first API call, get your API key:
  1. Create a free account →
  2. Go to API Keys and click Create API key
  3. Copy the key — it starts with oi_sk_
  4. Use it as Authorization: Bearer <api_key> on every request
Already have an account? Log in to your dashboard →Once logged in, you can view all your call logs — transcripts, outcomes, and latency breakdowns — directly in the dashboard using your API key.

What you can build

Use caseHow
Outbound calling botAgent dials leads, qualifies them, books demos
Inbound support lineAssign a phone number — callers reach your agent 24/7
Website voice widgetAdd the Web SDK to your site with a publishable key — visitors talk to your agent right in the browser, no phone number needed

How a call works

Caller speaks → transcribed to text → LLM decides reply → spoken back to caller. OneInbox runs this loop in real time. → How it works
