1. Agreement to Terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you or the entity you represent ("Customer", "Tenant", "you", or "your") and the operators of Callnet, collectively developed and maintained by Posterior AI (posterior.xyz) and BYOB Studio (byob.studio) ("Callnet", "we", "us", or "our").
By creating an account, connecting a phone number, initiating an AI call, topping up your wallet balance, or accessing our APIs at callnet.byob.page, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must immediately discontinue all use of Callnet.
2. Description of Service & AI Autonomous Telephony
Callnet provides cloud-based autonomous voice AI telephony solutions for businesses. The service enables businesses to provision virtual Indian phone numbers (+91), configure conversational AI voice assistants powered by real-time speech-to-speech models (including Google Gemini Live), automate inbound inquiry resolution, perform outbound lead qualification calls, record and transcribe calls, and receive instant post-call summaries and alerts via webhooks and Telegram.
You understand and acknowledge that Callnet uses artificial intelligence to generate speech and understand natural human conversation in real-time. While our system is engineered for human-grade responsiveness and contextual accuracy, AI-generated responses are probabilistic and we do not warrant that all AI turns will be entirely error-free or free from hallucination.
3. Account Registration & Business KYC Verification
To access the telephony platform and purchase or connect phone numbers, you must complete business verification (Know Your Customer / KYC) as mandated by Indian telecommunication authorities. You represent and warrant that:
- All information provided during onboarding (such as GSTIN, Company PAN, registered address, authorized signatory identity) is true, accurate, and current.
- You will maintain the security of your account credentials, API keys, and session cookies.
- You will notify Callnet immediately upon discovering any unauthorized access to your tenant account.
- Failure to provide accurate KYC documents may result in immediate suspension or termination of your telephony routing privileges.
4. Telecom Compliance, TRAI & DoT Regulations
Callnet operates strictly within the telecommunications regulatory framework of the Republic of India, governed by the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) and the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI).
- Caller Line Identification (CLI): You must never spoof, mask, or manipulate caller ID. Calls originated via Callnet must show verified, carrier-registered phone numbers.
- TRAI Commercial Communications (UCC): Outbound commercial communications must comply with TRAI Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) guidelines and scrub against National Do Not Call (NDNC / NCPR) registries.
- Calling Time Windows: Promotional or sales calls must only be placed during statutory permitted hours (09:00 AM to 09:00 PM local time).
- Interconnection & Transit: Telephony media bridging is terminated through licensed telecom access providers (including Plivo Inc. and Indian telecom partners).
5. Call Recording, Caller Notification & DPDP Act 2023
Callnet allows tenants to automatically record, transcribe, and summarize phone calls. As the data fiduciary initiating or receiving the phone calls, you are solely responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable call recording and wiretapping laws.
You must ensure that your AI assistant's initial greeting or interactive voice response (IVR) explicitly notifies callers that:
"This call is being handled by an automated AI assistant and may be recorded for quality assurance, transcription, and service delivery."
In accordance with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act 2023) and the Information Technology Act, 2000, you must obtain adequate caller consent and provide mechanisms for callers to opt out or request data erasure.
6. Billing, Rates, Wallet & Taxes
Callnet operates on a transparent prepaid wallet system:
- Standard Calling Rate: Transparent all-inclusive rate of ₹1.90 per minute (consisting of ₹1.40/min telephony line carrier transit + ₹0.50/min Gemini Live voice AI inference, billed in 60-second increments or exact seconds per plan).
- Prepaid Balance: Calls are routed only if your wallet balance is positive. If your balance drops to zero during a call, Callnet reserves the right to gracefully conclude or terminate the call.
- Free Trial: New registered tenants receive ₹100 in promotional calling credits to evaluate the platform. Promotional credits are non-transferable and non-refundable.
- Taxes: All listed prices are exclusive of Goods and Services Tax (GST at 18%) or other statutory levies, which will be calculated and collected at checkout.

Callnet is not a replacement for traditional landline or mobile telephone service and does NOT provide access to emergency response hotlines (such as 112, 100, 101, 108, or international 911 / 999). You must ensure alternative telecommunication arrangements are available for emergency situations.
9. Intellectual Property & Tenant Data Ownership
