Deploying your Synthflow AI agent gets it live and ready to take calls or messages. Each deployment path is **complementary**, so you can enable several at once on the same agent to cover wherever your customers are. Combine voice channels, messaging channels, automations, and integrations to fit your workflow.

#### [Telephony](/about-telephony)

Connect your agent to the public phone network for inbound and outbound calls, with options for purchased numbers, Twilio, and SIP trunking.

#### [WhatsApp Business](/whatsapp-business-calling)

Let customers click-to-call your inbound agent inside WhatsApp while preserving WhatsApp's encryption and user experience.

#### [Websocket](/ws-media-integration)

Start a voice call and stream audio over WebSocket with one API request — no WebRTC signaling on the client.

#### [Chat](/launch-chat-agents)

Run text conversations through an embeddable widget, the chat API, WhatsApp messaging, or SMS.

#### [API](/getting-started-with-your-api)

Drive every part of the platform programmatically with the Synthflow REST and streaming API.

#### [Workflows](/workflows)

Automate what happens before, during, and after each call by connecting agents to CRMs, databases, and external systems.

#### [Zapier](/zapier-overview)

Trigger calls and sync call data with thousands of apps using Zapier triggers and actions.

#### [GoHighLevel](/gohighlevel)

Sync agencies and subaccounts, import calendars for real-time booking, and run inbound and outbound call workflows.

#### [Other integrations](/about-integrations)

Browse the full catalog of CRM, scheduling, payments, automation, and telephony integrations.

## FAQ

#### How do I choose between Telephony, WhatsApp, Websocket, and Chat?

Choose based on where your users already are: **Telephony** for phone network calls, **WhatsApp** for WhatsApp Business calling, **Websocket** for real-time voice in your app, and **Chat** for text channels. You can enable more than one deployment path for the same agent.

#### Can I use third-party tools like GoHighLevel, Zapier, or API webhooks?

Yes. In **Deployment Settings**, you can connect [GoHighLevel](/gohighlevel), [Zapier](/zapier-overview), and custom API webhook flows using [Get started with your API](/getting-started-with-your-api).

#### Is there a maximum call duration?

Yes. Calls can run for up to 40 minutes, including both Twilio-based and custom telephony setups.

#### Can Synthflow support region-specific infrastructure needs?

In many cases, yes. We can deploy points of presence closer to your users to reduce latency and jitter. For an example, see this LATAM regionalization [case study](/deploy-in-latam-regions).
