Built for Distributed Startups

Traditional phone lines can't keep up with modern remote teams. We built a VoIP stack specifically for high-growth startups hiring in India.

Team Collaboration

Startup VoIP FAQs

Do I need special hardware to call my team in India?

No. StartACall is a softphone solution. You and your team can use any modern web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari) on laptops or mobile devices.

Is VoIP legal in India?

Yes, for international calling. While India has regulations regarding domestic VoIP-to-PSTN routing (toll bypass), using a service like StartACall to communicate between international offices and Indian teams is fully compliant.

Why is the call quality sometimes poor with other providers?

Calls to India often suffer from latency due to poor routing paths. We prioritize routes that have direct interconnects in Mumbai and Chennai to minimize hops and reduce jitter.

Can I get an Indian phone number?

Virtual Indian numbers (DID) are heavily regulated and require strict KYC (Know Your Customer) documentation (business registration in India). However, you can instantly call TO India from any number we provide.

Ready to Scale Your Team?

Communication shouldn't be the bottleneck for your startup's growth in India.

What to know when calling India

  • DND (Do Not Disturb) registration with TRAI is mandatory to scrub; commercial calls to DND-registered numbers attract fines up to ₹10,000.
  • Hindi/English bilingual greetings are universal for business; regional language opening matters in Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, and Kerala.
  • Indian mobile numbers are 10 digits starting with 6, 7, 8, or 9. Operators have been free to port across these prefix ranges since MNP, so prefix no longer reliably identifies the carrier.

Regulation & compliance (India)

  • TRAI's TCCCPR 2018 mandates principal-entity registration for any commercial calling/SMS; un-registered traffic gets blocked.
