What is Dialpad?

Dialpad is an AI-powered business communications platform that combines a business phone system (Ai Voice) with an Ai Contact Center and Ai Sales Center. Its standout capabilities are real-time: live transcription of calls, in-the-moment agent coaching, sentiment analysis, and AI agent assist that surfaces answers and next steps while a human is talking. It has also been expanding into newer AI agent features.

It is best understood as a suite that makes human agents better rather than one that replaces them. Dialpad equips your reps with a phone, a contact center, and strong real-time AI assistance so they handle calls more effectively, while the conversations themselves are still driven by people. Pricing is generally seat-based per user.

For teams that keep humans on the phone and want to sharpen their performance with real-time AI, that assistive model is a genuine strength, and Dialpad’s real-time transcription and coaching are among the best in the category. The trade-off is that it augments human calling rather than autonomously running the calls, booking the meetings, and driving the multi-channel revenue motion end to end.

MediaBloom vs Dialpad: the key differences

AI that assists vs. AI that runs the call

Dialpad puts real-time transcription, coaching, and assist beside your human agents to help them perform. MediaBloom’s AI agents handle the conversations themselves, inbound and outbound, and book the meetings. Dialpad makes your people better on calls; MediaBloom does the calling for you.

Communications suite vs. full revenue platform

Dialpad unifies phone, contact center, and sales tooling for live agents. MediaBloom runs the whole motion: inbound answering, outbound calling, SMS and email follow-up, lead qualification, appointment booking, and pipeline reactivation, coordinated across channels and executed by AI.

Pricing model

Dialpad pricing is generally seat-based per user, so cost scales with headcount and you still staff the calls. MediaBloom uses predictable monthly pricing that already includes the AI agents, integrations, compliance, and managed support, without paying per rep.

Done-for-you and compliance

MediaBloom ships with TCPA consent, DNC scrubbing, recording disclosures, and SOC 2 / HIPAA-ready workflows, and our team configures and optimizes everything for you. Dialpad provides the platform and real-time AI, but the calling, the outbound strategy, and the compliance process remain your team’s to run.

Switching from Dialpad to MediaBloom

Many teams use Dialpad to sharpen their human agents and then bring in MediaBloom to actually run the calls that reps cannot cover, or to qualify and book before handing warm conversations to a person. Because Dialpad augments humans and MediaBloom replaces the manual calling, they can complement each other. Migrating or layering in is straightforward: we map your call flows, build the AI agents and integrations for you, and launch a managed deployment so your conversations get handled and booked at scale.
