When you already have the numbers and just need the calls made

A campaign is about a relationship over time: several steps, several channels, state per lead. A bulk call job is about volume at one moment. Folding the second into the first would make both worse — the campaign builder would grow options nobody running a campaign needs, and the bulk job would inherit machinery it has no use for.

It is also billed separately, which keeps the accounting honest: a month with one big calling push does not muddle the cost of your ongoing outreach.

• A CSV of contacts. Rows are validated on upload, so you see how many are actually callable before anything runs.
• A script the agent works from.
• A voice configuration — language, gender, speed, and the same limits that apply to campaign calls.
• Optionally a scheduled start time.

Jobs move through draft, then running, then complete — with the raw contact list kept alongside, so a job is inspectable after the fact rather than a number in a summary.

Progress is tracked per contact as the job executes, along with total duration and total cost as they accrue. That last one matters: minute billing on a large list is the easiest place in the product to spend more than you meant to, so the number is visible while it is happening rather than at the end.

• It does not personalise per contact. One script, one list — that is the trade.
• It does not create lead records, or feed the lead score. Campaign calls do.
• It does not check your list against anything. Consent, accuracy and calling hours are yours.
• It does not run a sequence. There is no follow-up step; a bulk job is one pass.

Why is bulk calling cheaper than a campaign call?

₹8 a minute rather than ₹10, because the work is simpler: one script, one list, no per-lead personalisation and no sequence state to maintain. The discount is the volume, not a different quality of call.

Do the contacts have to be leads in my workspace?

No. A bulk job takes a CSV directly, which is the whole point of it — you already have the numbers from somewhere else, and turning them into lead records first would be work for its own sake.

Can I schedule a job for later?

Yes, and you generally should. Calling hours are regulated in India, and a job scheduled for a sensible morning is both more effective and less likely to cause a problem than one started whenever you finished the CSV.
