Direct Answer (TL;DR)
Yes — Brilo AI can be configured to work with 8x8 for call forwarding and to record call outcomes (call dispositions) when your 8x8 environment forwards calls or posts call events to Brilo AI via SIP, a forwarding number, or a webhook. Brilo AI handles call routing, collects a disposition (call outcome) at the end of the interaction, and can push that disposition back to your CRM or to a webhook endpoint for downstream reporting. The exact integration approach depends on how your 8x8 account can hand off calls (SIP trunking, call forwarding to a Brilo number, or event/webhook delivery) and on the routing and disposition fields your systems require.
Can Brilo AI forward calls from 8x8? — Yes. When 8x8 forwards calls to Brilo AI’s phone endpoint or SIP trunk, Brilo AI answers and applies configured routing and disposition logic.
Can Brilo AI send call outcomes back to 8x8? — Sometimes. Brilo AI can deliver call dispositions to your CRM or webhook endpoint; whether it posts directly into 8x8 depends on your 8x8 configuration and available APIs.
Can Brilo AI use 8x8 for call recording and dispositions? — Brilo AI records the interaction metadata and can provide disposition data; recording handover and storage depend on how you route media and on 8x8’s recording controls.
Why This Question Comes Up (problem context)
Enterprises using 8x8 want to keep a single contact-center platform but add Brilo AI voice agents for automation, 24/7 handling, and disposition tracking. Buyers ask this to understand whether Brilo AI can sit in-line with 8x8 for live call answering, for post-call tagging (dispositions), and for CRM updates without disrupting existing routing, compliance, or reporting. This question is common for healthcare and banking organizations that require predictable call flows and auditable call outcomes.
How It Works (High-Level)
When integrated, Brilo AI can act as the answering endpoint for calls forwarded from 8x8 or as a downstream processor for call events. Typical patterns include:
8x8 forwards calls to a Brilo AI phone number or SIP endpoint and Brilo AI answers and handles the interaction.
Brilo AI records the interaction metadata and assigns a call disposition (call outcome) at call end.
Brilo AI posts the disposition and any structured data to your CRM or webhook.
In Brilo AI, call disposition is a structured call outcome that is recorded at the end of an interaction and can be mapped to your CRM fields.
In Brilo AI, call routing is the configured logic that decides whether Brilo AI handles the call, forwards it, or escalates it to a human agent.
In Brilo AI, a webhook is a callback endpoint where Brilo AI posts event data (for example, dispositions or call logs) after a call completes.

Guardrails & Boundaries
Brilo AI integration with 8x8 should be planned with clear guardrails to avoid routing loops, mis-tagged dispositions, or regulatory exposure.
Require a dedicated forwarding number or SIP endpoint for Brilo AI.
Tag forwarded calls so Brilo AI can apply the correct script and compliance checks.
Limit which call types Brilo AI will handle (for example, customer service vs. high-risk account changes).
In Brilo AI, escalation condition is a configured rule that triggers immediate handoff to a live agent when the AI cannot safely complete a task.
Brilo AI will not automatically modify 8x8 account-level settings; changes to your 8x8 routing, call recording, or compliance configuration must be made in your 8x8 admin console or through your IT team. For guidance on routing and transfer limits, consult Brilo AI’s ACD and routing best practices: Automatic Call Distribution with Voice AI.
Applied Examples
Healthcare example
A medical clinic forwards after-hours calls from 8x8 to Brilo AI. The Brilo AI voice agent confirms appointment details, logs a disposition of “appointment-confirmed” or “voicemail-left,” and posts the disposition and a timestamp to the clinic’s scheduling system for follow-up.
Banking / Financial services example
A bank forwards routine balance-inquiry calls to Brilo AI. The Brilo AI voice agent authenticates the caller, delivers the balance, and sets a disposition such as “balance-provided” or “requires-human-review.” Dispositions and call metadata are posted back to the bank’s CRM to trigger outbound follow-up for flagged calls.
Do not assume direct changes to 8x8 compliance settings or certified recording storage will occur automatically when calls are forwarded; coordinate with your 8x8 administrator and compliance team to preserve required audit trails.
Human Handoff & Escalation
Warm transfer (transfer with context): Brilo AI places a caller on hold and transfers the session to a human with a short context summary and the expected disposition options.
Cold transfer: Brilo AI forwards the call to a designated 8x8 agent extension or queue without prior context.
Callback escalation: Brilo AI captures caller information and disposition, then triggers an outbound task for a human agent to call back.
Handoffs are triggered by configured escalation conditions (explicit phrases, failed verification, or a “transfer” intent). When configured, Brilo AI will also attach the suggested disposition options for the receiving agent to confirm or edit.
Setup Requirements
Confirm: Verify how your 8x8 environment can hand off calls (call forwarding to a phone number, SIP trunk, or event/webhook).
Provide: Supply Brilo AI with a reachable phone endpoint or SIP details and any required SIP credentials or DID (direct inward dialing) to receive forwarded calls.
Configure: Define the call flows and disposition taxonomy you want Brilo AI to use (for example: resolved, voicemail, escalated), and map those to your CRM fields.
Authorize: Provide any authentication or API keys for your CRM or webhook endpoint so Brilo AI can post dispositions and call metadata.
Test: Execute staged test calls from 8x8 to Brilo AI, validate voice quality, verify disposition mapping, and confirm handoff behavior.
Monitor: Enable logging and call-reporting so you can review dispositions and adjust routing or scripts as needed.

Business Outcomes
When configured correctly with 8x8, Brilo AI voice agents can reduce agent load on routine calls, increase consistency in disposition tagging, and shorten time-to-resolution for common inquiries. Realistic operational outcomes include fewer live-handled routine calls, more consistent CRM data from automated dispositions, and faster routing for calls requiring human attention. Outcomes depend on call volume, disposition policies, and the quality of the 8x8 handoff (SIP vs. forwarding number vs. webhooks).
FAQs
Can Brilo AI answer live calls forwarded from 8x8?
Yes. Brilo AI can answer calls that 8x8 forwards to a Brilo phone endpoint or SIP trunk; the call will be handled according to your Brilo AI routing and script configuration.
Can dispositions recorded by Brilo AI appear in my CRM automatically?
Yes. Brilo AI can post structured disposition data to your CRM or to your webhook endpoint; you must provide API access or webhook URLs and map Brilo disposition fields to your CRM fields.
Will call recordings be stored in 8x8 when Brilo AI answers the call?
Recording behavior depends on how media is routed. If recordings must remain in 8x8, coordinate routing and recording settings with your 8x8 admin. Brilo AI retains interaction metadata and can provide call logs and transcripts according to your data retention policy.
Does Brilo AI change 8x8 call routing rules?
No. Brilo AI does not change your 8x8 account settings. You configure 8x8 to forward or route calls to Brilo AI; any routing changes in 8x8 must be made in your 8x8 administration console.
What information do I need to provide to map dispositions?
You need the list of disposition codes or outcomes you want Brilo AI to use, the CRM field names to map to, and an authenticated API or webhook endpoint where Brilo AI can post the disposition payload.
