The same numbers, every buyer

Fraud cycles through every buyer on the network. Verdicts cache for a day, so a number caught once never rings you twice.

The flow

Ping. Score. Route.

01 · ping

Your tracker pings us

TrackDrive, Ringba, Retreaver, or anything that can fire a webhook posts the caller number to your lookup URL before the call routes.

02 · score

We score the number

Carrier-grade phone intelligence classifies the line in milliseconds. Genuine reachable callers pass; disposable VoIP, premium-rate lines and other fraud-prone numbers do not.

03 · route

You route on the answer

The response is one field your tracker can branch on. Real callers ring your buyers; fraud never costs a payable minute.

04 · cache

Verdicts cache for a day

A number scored once answers instantly for a day. On pay as you go, verdicts persist in our shared database, so a number any customer has scored never costs you a fresh lookup. And if a lookup cannot run, we fail open.

Balance that never blocks

On pay-as-you-go, pings debit a prepaid balance. Running low alerts you and can auto-recharge; it never cuts off a caller.

Fail-open, by design

If a lookup cannot run, the answer is allow. Zero genuine callers have ever been blocked by an outage.

Plugs into

If it can fire a webhook, it can screen callers.

One POST per inbound call, one field to route on. Setup guides for TrackDrive, Ringba and Retreaver are in the docs.

Questions

Asked before you ask.

What exactly does callersift block?+

callersift scores every inbound caller against carrier-grade phone intelligence before the call routes. Genuine reachable callers pass; disposable VoIP, premium-rate lines and other fraud-prone numbers are blocked. You route on one field in the response.

Can a real caller get blocked by an outage?+

No. The service fails open: if a lookup cannot run for any reason, the answer is allow. An outage can never cost you a genuine caller.

How is it priced?+

Two ways. Bring your own Integration: a flat $5 a month with lookups running through your own carrier integration at cost, plus a 14-day free trial. Pay as you go: $0.010 per ping on our infrastructure from a prepaid balance, with a $20 opening top-up and optional auto-recharge. Both need a card.

What happens when a pay-as-you-go balance runs out?+

Screening stays on. A low balance alerts you by email and in the app, and auto-recharge (if enabled) tops up $20 from your saved card when the balance dips under $5. A balance never blocks a caller.

Which call trackers work with it?+

TrackDrive, Ringba and Retreaver have step-by-step guides, and anything that can fire a webhook per inbound call works: POST the caller number to your lookup URL, read allow or block from the response.

What caller data do you store?+

Lookup logs keep only masked numbers (the last four digits) plus the verdict and line type. Full numbers are processed transiently for scoring and are not stored in your ping history.
