Who should stay on Retreaver
If tag-based routing maps perfectly to your operation, your volume is modest, and pay-as-you-go (~$0.05/min + $1/number) beats any platform fee — stay. Retreaver is a clean, well-built tool with a documented RTB API and native Salesforce/HubSpot. Teldrip is for teams that need what Retreaver doesn’t ship: AI quality scoring, automated payouts, fraud blocking, and an outbound dialer.
Routing is step one. Revenue needs four more.
Retreaver routes calls by tags and exposes an RTB API — but scoring quality, blocking fraud, paying publishers, and dialing outbound all happen elsewhere. Pulse ships AI Quality Analysis, Fraud Intelligence, and automated payout management in the same platform — add Teldrip Signal (separately priced) for numbers and AI dialing — with outcomes pushed server-side to every major ad platform.

What Teldrip operators report
FAQ
Can Teldrip replicate my Retreaver tag routing?
Yes — Routing Plans is a visual builder for buyer hierarchies, day-parting, geo and vertical caps, failovers and overflow. Most tag architectures map to it directly; we rebuild your first campaign with you during the trial.
Retreaver is pay-as-you-go — won’t a platform be more expensive?
At low volume, possibly — that’s in “who should stay.” The math flips when you’re separately paying for a QA/analytics tool, payout tooling, and a dialer. One migration call with your call logs answers it precisely.
Can I keep my buyers and ping/post integrations?
Yes. Buyer connections move via ping/post or SIP targets, and RTB runs sub-100ms auctions across your qualified buyers from day one.
