Question 1

What is AI cold calling software?

Accepted Answer

AI cold calling software places outbound sales calls with an autonomous AI voice agent. AInora runs it the EU way - B2B only, the AI disclosed on every call, per-country legality, GDPR legitimate interest for the data, and opt-outs honoured and logged. Done-for-you, not a dashboard you have to defend.

We will not claim it is “fully compliant” or “zero risk” for your specific situation - lawful use depends on the market and how you run the campaign. What we do is map each market and run only where a disclosed AI voice can lawfully cold-call on an opt-out basis.

Question 2

Is AI cold calling legal in the EU?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the country and on how you run the campaign - there is no single EU-wide yes or no. The ePrivacy Directive requires prior opt-in consent for automated marketing calls, but each member state transposed it differently: where the automated-call rule protects consumers only, disclosed AI-voice B2B cold calling can run on an opt-out basis (for example Lithuania, Latvia, Sweden); where it also covers businesses, an automated cold call needs prior consent (for example Germany, Spain, Italy, Poland). We map each market and route the red ones to reactivation, inbound or a human opener. See our AI cold calling compliance in Europe page for the per-country detail. This is general information, not legal advice.

Question 3

How does AInora keep AI cold calling GDPR-compliant?

Accepted Answer

Two layers. For the data, the lawful basis for B2B outbound is typically legitimate interest under GDPR Article 6(1)(f), with a documented balancing test and an honoured right to object. For the channel, we only run automated cold calls where the national ePrivacy rule permits an opt-out basis to legal persons, disclose the AI per Article 50, scrub against the relevant national opt-out registries, and honour and log every opt-out. We will not tell you it is "fully compliant" or "zero risk" for your specific case.

Question 4

Which EU countries can I run AI cold calling in?

Accepted Answer

Disclosed AI-voice B2B cold calls to genuine company landlines are viable on an opt-out basis in roughly eleven markets - the greenest being Lithuania, Latvia, Sweden, Luxembourg and Croatia, with Finland, Estonia, Bulgaria and Slovenia also viable via a standard number. France, Ireland and Portugal are amber - legal but conditioned: France and Ireland need a specific number path, and Portugal requires scrubbing the DGC legal-person list. Germany, Spain, Italy, Poland, the Netherlands and others are red: an automated cold call needs prior consent, so we route those to reactivation or a human opener. Verify current rules for your use case.

Question 5

Does the AI disclose that it is an AI?

Accepted Answer

Yes, on every call. EU AI Act Article 50 requires that a person be informed they are interacting with an AI system, and that duty binds across the entire EU from 2 August 2026. For a natural-sounding AI voice, disclosure must be explicit and early - "obvious from context" cannot be assumed. Every AInora call opens by disclosing the AI.

Question 6

Can I use AI cold calling for consumer (B2C) leads?

Accepted Answer

No. Cold B2C calling - and cold B2C SMS - needs prior consent in every EU state, the UK and the US, so consumer cold calling is off the table. AInora runs B2B only: genuine company legal-person lines, business-relevant pitch, no sole traders or personal mobiles. The moment you dial a person in a consumer capacity, the basis flips to opt-in.

Question 7

How is this different from just buying an AI dialer?

Accepted Answer

A raw AI dialer hands you the tool and leaves the legality, number path and stability to you. AInora is a managed service: we run the infrastructure and telephony, handle per-country legality and origination, scrub do-not-call lists, disclose the AI, and tune the agents. You get booked conversations under a compliant setup rather than a dashboard and a legal risk to defend alone.

Question 8

What does AI cold calling software cost?

Accepted Answer

We do not publish pricing, because the right scope depends on your ICP, target markets and volume. Contact us and we will scope it on a call - no number until we understand what you are building.
