What Is Answering Machine Detection?
In a call center, Answering Machine Detection (AMD) is a technology used in auto-dialers to detect whether a call has been answered by a person or a voicemail system. It helps optimize outbound call campaigns by filtering out unanswered calls. Call centers use AMD to avoid wasting time calling numbers that are answered by voicemail, and agents can focus on connecting with calls picked up by humans.
