# Dedicated iMessage Line

> Get your own dedicated phone number for your AI agent. Send outbound messages, register for services, and more.

# Dedicated iMessage Line

With the **Dedicated plan (\$99/mo)**, your AI agent gets its own phone number — a real, dedicated line that only belongs to you. This unlocks capabilities that shared lines simply can't offer.

## What Makes It Different

On **Pro**, your agent receives messages on a shared line and responds to you. It works great for inbound conversations — you text, it replies.

On **Dedicated**, your agent has its **own number**. That means it can do everything a shared line does, plus:

* **Initiate conversations** — your agent can text people first, not just reply
* **Act as your representative** — the number is exclusively yours
* **Register for services** — receive OTP codes, verify accounts, sign up for platforms

<Info>
  Your dedicated number is provisioned when you subscribe to the Dedicated plan. You'll see it in your dashboard within minutes.
