Definition
A voice bot is an automated system that interacts with users through spoken language, typically over the phone or through a device. The term is often used interchangeably with voice agent, though voice bot can imply simpler, rule-based systems.
Why it matters
Modern LLM-powered voice agents far outperform older rule-based voice bots, which is a key selling point over legacy IVR systems.
