Vercel's Chat SDK Now Integrates Dial for SMS and iMessage

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from Vercel ·

Vercel's Chat SDK adds support for Dial, enabling bots to send and receive SMS, MMS, and iMessage on real phone numbers. The integration handles bidirectional media and inbound voice-call transcripts, with each conversation mapped to a Chat SDK thread. Developers can use standard APIs and webhooks for messaging and state management.

Meridian48 take
This is a practical extension for developers building communication bots, but its impact depends on adoption beyond Vercel's ecosystem.
