The ARMOR® number test places real calls to actual human subscribers across major carriers and locations, delivering a true picture of how your calls appear in the wild. It detects CNAM (Caller Name) display issues, spam flags, and other call labeling problems that could hurt your performance.
Unlike tools that rely on bots or simulations, ARMOR® provides location-specific, carrier-specific results for the most accurate and actionable analysis available.
Calling a friend or colleague is a common move, but it’s flawed. Labels like “Spam Likely,” “Scam Likely,” and “Telemarketer” are carrier-specific, and can vary by location, device, and more, so just because your number looks clean on one phone doesn’t mean it’s clear everywhere.
In short, calling a friend is neither reliable nor scalable. That’s why we run controlled tests using real human subscribers across multiple carriers and geographies. This gives you accurate, repeatable insights into how your calls are actually received at scale.
Carrier algorithms are unique. Just because your number looks clean on one network doesn’t mean you’re in the clear on another. Labels can vary widely across carriers based on their own algorithms, data sources, and regional factors.
Not only does testing across multiple carriers help you identify whether a flag is isolated or widespread, it provides a clearer path to carrier-specific remediation.
Spam/scam labels vary by location as well. A number might be flagged in one city and clean in another, depending on local data, regional spam trends, and how individual carriers handle labeling. Testing across multiple locations is one of the most diligent steps you can take to maximize your reach and protect your outbound performance. Soon, you’ll also be able to test into specific markets you're targeting.
Additionally, ARMOR® data’s state-by-state analytics help you track answer rates across regions. This makes it easier to invest in high-performing markets, avoid underperforming ones, and make smarter, location-based dialing decisions.
If your number is being flagged as spam, your answer rate will decline. This is visibility you can’t afford not to have. Running an ARMOR® test places real calls to actual human subscribers across major carriers, so you can see exactly how your number appears to recipients before you start dialing.
