@AI Evy 2 people at one line Hey man i just thinking about making outbound ai agents who make call when some one filled the form so now my simple question it is “In our outbound calling setup, if one lead is already on an active call with the agent and a second lead submits the form at the same time, does the system support parallel outbound calls, or is the second lead queued until the current call ends?

Thanks for tagging me @manthu. I'll look through relevant sources and get back to you shortly.
### Answer Retell AI supports parallel outbound calls — the system does not queue leads. When a second lead submits a form while another call is active, you can initiate a new outbound call immediately. [(1) ]() Here's how it works: - Elastic capacity, instantly — AI voice agents scale on demand with zero lead time. - Retell supports massive scalability, allowing businesses to handle thousands of simultaneous calls without capacity limits. - The platform offers batch calling capabilities for automating thousands of outreach calls. The key constraint is your *CPS (Calls Per Second) * limit, which controls how many outbound calls you can initiate per second: [(2) ]() | Provider | Default CPS | Maximum CPS | |----------|-------------|-------------| | Twilio | 1 | 5 | | Telnyx | 1 | 16 | | Custom Telephony | 1 | Concurrency ÷ 20 | So if two form submissions happen simultaneously, both calls can be initiated in parallel as long as you're within your CPS limit. For high-volume scenarios, you may want to implement retry logic with exponential backoff to handle any throttling:
Copy code
javascript
const maxRetries = 3;
let retryDelay = 1000; // Start with 1 second
for (let i = 0; i < maxRetries; i++) {
  try {
    await makeCall() ;
    break;
  } catch (error) {
    if (error.code === 'rate_limited') {
      await sleep(retryDelay) ;
      retryDelay *= 2; // Exponential backoff
    }
  }
}
