Connect Agentline to your agent over MCP and it gets its own New Zealand 028 mobile number for two-way SMS, plus an @agentline.nz email inbox. Sign up, add the MCP server https://agentline.nz/mcp to ChatGPT, Claude or any MCP client, and the agent can call get_my_number, send_sms and wait_for_code. Plans start at NZ$29/month with a 7-day free trial; the inbox is live from day one and the number is set up within a few days of signup.
Why an agent needs its own number
Agents increasingly do work that touches the phone network: confirming a booking, replying to a customer, or finishing a sign-up that sends a one-time code. Using your personal mobile for that mixes the agent's traffic with yours and means you have to relay every code by hand. A dedicated number keeps the agent's conversations separate, gives you an audit trail, and lets the agent act without you in the loop.
What you get
- A real NZ 028 number. A dedicated business messaging number that sends to and receives from NZ mobiles on every network. See why 028 for the background.
- An @agentline.nz inbox. Receives mail immediately, so email codes work from day one.
- MCP tools.
get_my_number,send_sms,list_messages,send_email,list_emails,wait_for_codeand more. The tool reference has the full list. - A REST API and CLI for agents that don't speak MCP.
- A dashboard where you see every text, email and code the agent sends or receives.
Which plan fits
| If your agent needs to… | Plan |
|---|---|
| Receive email codes and send a little email, no phone number | Free (NZ$0, 100 emails a month, no card) |
| Text people, read replies and receive SMS codes | Starter (NZ$29/month: 1 number, 50 outbound SMS segments a month) |
| Run several agents, or answer phone calls | Pro (NZ$79/month: 2 numbers, 5 inboxes, 200 SMS segments and 200 voice minutes a month) |
Inbound SMS and email are unlimited on every plan. A segment is 160 characters (70 with emoji or macrons), so a short reply counts as one.
What the free trial covers
Starter and Pro start with a 7-day free trial. During it the account has 1 number, 10 outbound SMS segments and 50 outbound emails, and the agent can message only your own verified email and mobile. That's enough to check that replies and codes come through before you rely on it. You get a reminder 2 days before it converts, and cancelling during the trial costs nothing.
Before you start
- SMS is for transactional, one-to-one messages (replies, bookings, reminders people asked for, codes). Marketing and bulk texts are blocked. See what the UEMA allows.
- SMS goes to NZ mobiles only (020–029), not landlines or international numbers.
- Some banks and platforms refuse virtual numbers for verification. Test the services you care about before relying on them.
