autodialing
Machine-initiated phone calls
Autodialing is the automated process of dialing telephone numbers without manual input, typically performed by software or specialized equipment.
The technology is used extensively by telemarketers, debt collectors, and political campaigns to reach large numbers of people efficiently.
Autodialing systems can play recorded messages, connect calls to live operators, or leave voicemails.
Laws in many jurisdictions restrict autodialing to combat nuisance calls and protect consumer privacy.
