Hey guys! I’m looking into making my own VoIP phone number service similar to Twilio. I’ve looked all over the internet for this, but wasn’t able to find anything about creating valid VoIP phone numbers that anybody is able to call from their phone. What I mean by this is numbers like (929) xxx xxxx.

I would appreciate any insight on how to host this :)

Before anybody recommends it, NO, I do NOT want to use any third parties like TextNow or voip.ms.

    Starting a telecom company is one of the most difficult and frustrating things you can do. It costs millions of dollars, takes dozens of employees and sign off from regulatory authorities in all 50 states.

    It used to be a lot easier before the Stir Shaken nonsense started. Now, it’s probably about twice as expensive as it used to be.

    If you don’t have the “bug” that causes people to be low-key obsessed with telephones, you’ll burn out. If you do, it’ll be one of the best things you’ve ever done and will give you the kind of pride.
