Phone numbers in Talkturo are the caller IDs your assistants use for inbound and outbound calls. You search for available numbers by country and area code, purchase the ones you want, and then assign them to assistants via the assistants API. Free accounts receive one trial number valid for 5 days. Subscribed accounts can purchase numbers up to the limit of their plan.
