Telnyx now imports Retell agents directly into Voice AI Assistants. Teams keep their existing prompts and logic while gaining lower latency, consistent telephony, and clearer control of multi-step flows. This reduces operational issues that appear as traffic scales.
What’s new
- Direct Retell import: Pulls prompts, tools, logic, and settings into Telnyx automatically.
- Multi-assistant graphing: Splits Retell multi-prompt agents into modular connected assistants.
- Integrated telephony path: Runs inference within the Telnyx voice stack to remove cross-cloud hops.
- Single-provider routing: Uses Telnyx carrier infrastructure for call delivery and audio quality.
- Immediate testing: Run live calls with transcripts, STT, TTS, and handoff visibility.
Why it matters
- Reduces latency variation during high-volume traffic.
- Improves call reliability by removing third-party carrier dependencies.
- Simplifies multi-step logic by making branches explicit and maintainable.
- Prevents hidden routing issues that are difficult to diagnose on external carriers.
- Supports production workflows without rebuilding agent behavior.
Example use cases
- High-volume outbound campaigns that require stable response times.
- Multi-step qualification flows with scheduling or CRM lookups.
- Inbound support lines that depend on consistent PSTN routing.
- Regulated processes that need full visibility into call paths and logic transitions.
Getting started
- In Mission Control, open AI Assistants under AI Storage & Compute.
- Select Import assistant, choose Retell, and enter your Retell API key.
- Load your available Retell agents.
- Select the agents to migrate and create Telnyx-native assistants.
- Review the generated assistant graph, adjust handoffs if needed, and run a live test call.
Import your Retell agent now in your Mission Control Portal or contact your Telnyx team.
