Built for the way your team actually works
Cradle is a cloud phone system, but the right phone system depends on what your team does on it. Accounting firms log every call into FYI or Xero Practice Manager. Sales teams care about caller ID against HubSpot, click-to-call from deals, and AI summaries that drive the next workflow. Customer success and support teams care about smart routing, queue handling, and never missing the call. Pick the page that matches what you're solving for.

ExploreWhat every team gets, regardless of vertical
The core phone system is the same across every solution — what changes is the integration shape and the workflow details. Every Cradle plan ships with:
- Local numbers in your market. NZ, AU, UK, US and Canada, with porting from any local carrier included in onboarding.
- Purpose-built desktop and mobile apps. macOS, Windows, iOS, Android. Tuned for call quality and reliability on flaky connections — not a browser tab.
- Smart routing and PBX features. Ring groups, IVR menus, business-hours routing, after-hours handling, voicemail boxes, conference calling, and call transfers across every plan.
- AI call summaries. Cradle's AI writes a one-paragraph summary of each call into your CRM or practice management system. Prompts are customisable per team.
- Voicemail transcription. Voicemails are transcribed and attached to the right contact record within seconds of the caller hanging up.
- Call recording. On every plan, with 28-day default retention (extendable on request).
- Responsive support. A real person during business hours in your market, with critical-issue cover outside hours.
