What is Predictive dialer?
A predictive dialer is an auto-dialer that places more calls than there are free agents, using statistics on answer rates and call lengths to predict when an agent will become available.
It dials ahead, filters out unanswered, busy and voicemail outcomes, and routes answered calls to the next free agent. When more people pick up than there are agents available, the system either drops the call or leaves the customer listening to silence, the dead air people associate with telemarketing. Predictive dialing works best for large teams running high-volume campaigns, where the statistics are stable enough to keep abandoned calls low.
Predictive dialers maximise agent talk time at the expense of the customer's experience, and silent calls teach people to ignore unknown numbers, which drags down connect rates for every business calling them. When the answering party is an AI agent there is no need to over-dial. Outpero runs only as many calls at once as you have channels, so every answered call is met by an agent ready to speak.
