Prerequisites — You need an Orova account and an API key.

1. Create an agent

Dashboard
API

Go to Agents

In the Orova dashboard, navigate to Agents in the sidebar.

Create a new agent

Click Create Agent and give it a name.

Add a system prompt

You are a friendly phone support assistant for Acme Corp.
Greet the caller and offer help. Keep responses under 30 words.
If a transfer is requested, confirm the reason first.

Configure providers

Choose your LLM, TTS, and STT providers. Defaults work great to start:

LLM: OpenAI GPT-4o-mini
TTS: ElevenLabs
STT: Deepgram

Set a first message

Add a greeting like: “Hi there! Thanks for calling Acme Corp. How can I help you today?“

curl -X POST https://app.orova.ai/api/agents \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Support Agent",
    "llm_provider": "openai",
    "llm_model": "gpt-4o-mini",
    "tts_provider": "elevenlabs",
    "stt_provider": "deepgram",
    "system_prompt": "You are a friendly phone support assistant.",
    "first_message": "Hi there! How can I help you today?"
  }'

2. Make a test call

Web Call (Browser)
Phone Call

The fastest way to test. In the agent detail page, click Talk to Agent to start a WebRTC call directly in your browser.

Add a phone number

Go to Phone Numbers → search and buy a Twilio number, or import your own.

Assign to agent

Assign the phone number to your agent with inbound or outbound mode.

Call it

For inbound: call the number from your phone. Your agent answers automatically.For outbound via API:

curl -X POST https://app.orova.ai/api/optimus/phone-call \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "assistantId": "AGENT_ID",
    "phoneNumber": "+1234567890",
    "phoneNumberId": "PHONE_NUMBER_ID"
  }'

Add the Orova widget to any website with a single script tag:

<script
  src="https://app.orova.ai/widget/orova-widget.js"
  data-api-key="YOUR_API_KEY"
  data-agent-id="AGENT_ID"
  data-server-url="https://app.orova.ai"
  data-mode="voice"
  data-title="Acme Support"
></script>

That’s it. A floating button appears on your site. Users can chat, call, or video call your agent.

See Widget Configuration for all customization options including themes, colors, and positioning.
