In their own words
Talkroute
Talkroute is a virtual phone system for managing business calls, messages, and meetings. It supports multiple business numbers, custom call routing, an auto attendant, voicemail transcription, call forwarding, simultaneous ringing, menus, extensions, live transfers, and scheduled forwarding. Calling plans include unlimited U.S. and Canada minutes, subject to reasonable use policies. SMS and MMS are available, with monthly message allowances varying by plan; outbound messages may require number verification and follow carrier rules. Video meetings support up to 100 participants, with screen sharing, whiteboard, and file sharing depending on plan. The service offers an API for connecting data with other tools, though API access is reviewed per account and the public API does not provide direct voice calling. Talkroute lists Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, web, and Windows platforms, plus desktop and mobile apps. There is no free plan; the pricing note lists a starting price of $19/mo and a seven-day trial. Business Phone Basic is $19 a month and includes one user, one number, one mailbox, and 500 monthly texts.
