You can now pass a dynamic audio file directly into your Custom Ringless Voicemail (RVM) webhook using a new audio= parameter.
This update makes it easier to send dynamically generated or externally hosted audio files without pre-configuring them inside the platform.
🔧 What’s New
You can now append the following parameter to your Custom RVM webhook URL:
&audio=YOUR_AUDIO_FILE_URL
When included, the system will:
  1. Pull the dynamic MP3 merge field into the Call Loop webhook URL
  2. Use that merge field as the voice audio
  3. Send the Ringless Voicemail to the specified contact
⚙️ Example
Webhook URL:
If the request is successful, you will receive a confirmation response including a message ID indicating the voicemail has been queued.
🎯 Why This Matters
This enhancement allows you to:
Send fully dynamic RVM audio
Use AI-generated or personalized audio files
Trigger voice drops from external systems
Integrate more flexibly with CRMs and automation platforms
No need to pre-select static audio files in your campaign.
⚠️ Requirements
The audio file must be publicly accessible
Supported format: MP3
File must be reachable at the time of the request
This update provides greater flexibility and automation control for developers and advanced users leveraging Custom RVM triggers.
For setup assistance, please contact support or refer to the API documentation.

We’ve improved how PhoneChecker works for SMS.
Before any SMS is sent, we now automatically validate that the phone number is taxable and eligible to receive SMS messages, at no cost to you.
That means every SMS send is checked to ensure the number can legally and technically receive your message.
What’s New
SMS numbers are automatically validated before sending
This validation is free for SMS messages
Only taxable, SMS-capable numbers are eligible for delivery
Why Does This Matter?
Sending to non-taxable or invalid numbers can:
Waste credits
Reduce deliverability
Hurt engagement rates
Impact your sender reputation
By validating numbers automatically, we help ensure:
✔️ Higher deliverability
✔️ Better ROI
✔️ Fewer wasted sends
✔️ Stronger compliance
You don’t need to take any action; it’s built directly into the SMS sending process.
Cleaner data. Smarter sends. Better results.

We’ve added a new Opt-In Status column to the Contacts table to give you clearer visibility and better compliance control over SMS and voice communications.
What’s New
You’ll now see subscription status icons for:
  • 🤳 SMS
  • 📞 Calls & Voicemails
This column is enabled by default and allows you to quickly identify which communication types a contact is subscribed to.
Granular Opt-Out Control
Contacts can now opt out of specific message types:
  • Opt out of SMS only
  • Opt out of Calls & Voicemails only
  • Opt out of both
Hover over the icon to see the exact opt-out status.
Soft vs. Hard Unsubscribes
We now distinguish between two types of unsubscribes:
Soft Unsubscribe
  • Manually updated inside the platform
  • Can be reversed (contact may be re-subscribed)
Hard Unsubscribe
  • Contact replied “STOP” to SMS
  • Contact pressed the unsubscribe digit during a call or voicemail
  • Marked in red
  • Cannot be reversed
This ensures compliance and protects your sending reputation.
Automatic Broadcast Filtering
Broadcasts now automatically respect opt-in status:
  • SMS broadcasts exclude contacts opted out of SMS
  • Voice broadcasts exclude contacts opted out of calls
  • Contacts opted in to one channel but not another will only receive eligible message types
No manual filtering required.
Important Note
At this stage, the Opt-In Status column does not yet fully replace overall contact status logic. Additional improvements to subscription handling are planned in upcoming sprints.
This update gives you:
  • Clear subscription visibility
  • Better compliance control
  • Automatic broadcast protection
  • Channel-specific opt-out management
More improvements to subscription management are coming soon 🚀

We’ve added Do Not Call (DNC) scrubbing and validation for Voice Broadcast and Ringless Voicemail campaigns.
This feature automatically checks your contacts against DNC databases and blocks restricted numbers from receiving voice or ringless messages.
🔎 What’s New
With DNC Scrubbing enabled, you can now:
Automatically validate contacts against Do Not Call databases
Mark contacts as DNC = Yes or No
Block DNC contacts from Voice Broadcasts
Block DNC contacts from Ringless Voicemail
View DNC contacts in a dedicated tab
Manually validate individual contacts
Choose to validate only new contacts or your entire list
⚙️ How It Works
Go to Usage
Enable DNC Lookup
Choose:
Validate only new contacts
Validate all existing contacts
Once enabled:
New contacts will automatically be validated
Existing contacts can be batch validated
DNC contacts will be excluded from voice and ringless campaigns
You can also manually validate contacts from the Contacts page.
📣 Campaign Behavior
Voice Broadcasts → DNC contacts are automatically skipped
Ringless Voicemail → DNC contacts are automatically skipped
SMS → Messages will still send (unless restricted separately)
In campaigns and triggers, DNC contacts will be marked as skipped to maintain compliance.
💰 Lookup Cost
Each DNC lookup is billed per validation and calculated based on your plan’s credit pricing.
🎯 Why This Matters
This feature helps you:
✔️ Stay compliant
✔️ Reduce compliance risk
✔️ Protect your sender reputation
✔️ Prevent restricted voice sends
✔️ Maintain clean, validated contact lists
DNC Scrubbing ensures safer, more compliant voice campaigns — automatically.
If you need help enabling DNC Lookup, please contact support.

Accurate Click Tracking for Broadcasts

Screenshot 2025-09-13 at 7
We're excited to announce an important improvement to Click Stats in Call Loop broadcasts!
🆕 What Changed
Previously, Call Loop counted link previews on mobile devices as clicks. This meant that when a phone generated a preview of your URL, it was incorrectly logged as a customer action.
Now, only real taps — when a customer actually clicks your link — are counted.
✅ Why It Matters
  • 100% Accurate Reporting: Your stats now reflect true customer engagement.
  • Smarter Decisions: Compare broadcasts with confidence and see what’s really driving results.
  • Better ROI: Target and retarget based on verified customer actions.
💡 Pro Tip
  • Always use the Call Loop Link Shortener to make sure your links are tracked correctly.
  • Export your click reports to create segmented lists of engaged contacts, then follow up with a new broadcast to boost conversions.
🚀 Available Now
This improvement is live for all accounts. Log in to your Call Loop dashboard today to check your updated stats.
