# Call

> Voice and call interaction mode

The `call` command starts the PraisonAI Call server for voice-based AI interactions over phone calls.

## Usage

```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"vitesse-light","dark":"vitesse-dark"}}
praisonai call [OPTIONS]
```

## Options

| Option     | Description                           | Default                    |
| ---------- | ------------------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `--port`   | Port to run the server on             | `8090` (or `PORT` env var) |
| `--host`   | Host to bind the server to            | `127.0.0.1`                |
| `--public` | Expose the server via an ngrok tunnel | `false`                    |

<Note>
  `praisonai call` binds to `127.0.0.1` by default — local machine access only. To expose on your LAN, pass `--host 0.0.0.0` (a warning will print). To expose publicly, use `--public` (requires `NGROK_AUTH_TOKEN`).
</Note>

## Examples

### Start locally (default)

```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"vitesse-light","dark":"vitesse-dark"}}
praisonai call
```

### Custom port

```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"vitesse-light","dark":"vitesse-dark"}}
praisonai call --port 8090
```

### Expose publicly via ngrok

```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"vitesse-light","dark":"vitesse-dark"}}
export NGROK_AUTH_TOKEN="your-ngrok-auth-token"
praisonai call --public
```

### Expose on LAN

```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"vitesse-light","dark":"vitesse-dark"}}
praisonai call --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8090
```
