Could you build this?

Partial The voice-AI answering flow and call handling can be assembled from telephony and speech/LLM APIs, but a working scam blocker depends on a maintained database of scam numbers, which a solo builder would not have.

What it would actually take: Build on a telephony provider (Twilio or similar) with call-forwarding, a realtime speech-to-speech or STT/LLM/TTS voice agent, and a call log dashboard. The hard part is sourcing and continuously updating a scam-number and robocaller reputation dataset, which requires aggregated call data from many users or carrier partnerships. Plausible at scale only with a user base feeding that data back.
