Save money with your agent
How to save money on your phone bill with an AI agent
Your agent reads your latest phone bill, then Tuvoz calls 3 carrier stores near you for the price of the same lines and data, so you know what to ask for when you call your carrier.
What you could save
Of Consumer Reports members who changed phone providers in the past year, 60% cut their monthly bill.
Almost a third of them saved more than $40 a month.
How to do it with your agent
Step 1
Let your agent read your email
Connect Gmail, or the inbox you use, to your agent so it can find your latest bill: carrier, lines, plan, the monthly total with taxes and fees, and any device payments left.
- claude.ai: connect Gmail under Customize > Connectors. Anthropic's help
- Claude Code: uses the connectors you added on claude.ai when you sign in with your Claude account, so connect Gmail there first. Claude Code docs
- ChatGPT and Codex: add the Gmail plugin under Settings > Plugins. Codex uses the same plugins, except in the IDE extension. OpenAI's help
- Meta Muse: go to Settings > Connectors, or ask it to connect your Gmail. You choose whether it can only read your mail. Meta's help
- OpenClaw: use the bundled gog skill, which needs your own Google OAuth setup. the skill's docs

Step 2
Set up Tuvoz
Paste this into your agent. Skip this step if it already has Tuvoz.

Run this prompt
Paste it into the same chat. Change anything first, like how many places to call.
Find my latest cell phone bill in my email: carrier, lines, plan, the monthly total with taxes and fees, and any device payments left. Then use Tuvoz to call 3 carrier stores near me, at their local numbers, and ask the monthly price with taxes and fees for the same number of lines and similar data, plus any offer for switching and its conditions. Don't share my account number, PIN or card numbers, and don't answer security questions. Don't agree to anything; ask me first. Show me the plan before you call. Afterward, put the prices side by side with what I pay now, and write a few lines I can use when I call my carrier myself.
Your agent reads your latest bill, so it knows your lines, your data and what you really pay after taxes and fees. Tuvoz calls 3 carrier stores near you and asks what the same setup would cost there. You come away with real prices to compare and a short script for the call you make to your own carrier.
What Tuvoz can’t do: talk to your carrier about your account
Carriers check who you are before they discuss or change an account: Verizon uses an account PIN and AT&T an account passcode. Tuvoz never answers those questions, and most carriers’ customer service and retention lines are toll-free numbers, which Tuvoz doesn’t call. So Tuvoz won’t lower your bill, change your plan or cancel a line. It gets you the competing prices; you make the call that changes your account, or switch.
Who Tuvoz calls
Carrier stores and authorized retailers near you, at the local numbers on their listings. Your agent skips any store whose listing shows only a toll-free number.
What the store hears
Every call opens the same way:
“Hi! I’m Jane Doe’s AI assistant, calling through Tuvoz about a phone plan quote.”
Then it asks whether it may record the call. If they say yes, it describes what you have now from your bill: the number of lines, how much data you use and the phones you’d keep. It asks for the monthly price with taxes and fees, any offer for switching, and what would change, like a new contract or a device payment. If the store asks something the brief doesn’t cover, the voice agent asks your agent mid-call, and Tuvoz calls you if your agent can’t answer. More on this in how the mid-call backchannel works.
What comes back
A short table: each store, the plan, the monthly price with taxes and fees, any switching offer and its conditions, with your current bill in the last row. Your agent also writes a few lines for your own call to your carrier: what you pay, the best competing price, and what you’re asking for.
What it won’t do
- Answer security questions or share your account number, PIN or card numbers.
- Change, cancel or open an account, or agree to a plan or a device payment.
- Call toll-free numbers or someone’s mobile.
What it costs
Three calls of about 4 minutes each is 12 minutes, or $1.44 (720 seconds × $0.002). Tuvoz charges $0.12 a minute, billed per second with a 30-second minimum per answered call leg, including calls to your own phone. Calls nobody answers cost nothing. A new account starts with 15 minutes of free talk time.
FAQ
- Can Tuvoz call my carrier and ask for a better rate?
- No. Carriers verify you with an account PIN or passcode before they discuss your account, and Tuvoz never answers those questions. Their customer service lines are also mostly toll-free, which Tuvoz doesn't call. It gets you competing prices; you make the call to your carrier.
- Will a store quote a price to an AI?
- A plan quote doesn't need your account, so many stores will give one by phone. If a store wants you to come in, the summary says so.
- What about phones I'm still paying off?
- Your agent finds any device payments on your bill and puts them in the brief, so the voice agent can ask what happens to them if you switch.
- How many stores can it call?
- A free account can call 3 new numbers a day, one call at a time. A paid account can call 10 new numbers a day, up to 3 at once.
