Switching from Bland AI to Convocore

Teams usually leave Bland AI when they need the same agent on the phone and in chat, without keeping two knowledge bases in step. Here is how to move from Bland AI to Convocore without a gap in coverage, what carries over, and what the overlap costs. You can build the agent and test it in chat on the Free plan before paying.

Steps

1. Export what you have in Bland AI. Copy your pathway or prompt text, the knowledge documents behind it, and any webhook or tool calls, plus the numbers each pathway answers.
2. Rebuild the agent in Convocore. Create an agent, paste your prompt and greeting, pick a voice, and rebuild each tool or function as a tool node or webhook. Keep the same names and fields so your downstream systems see the same data.
3. Load the knowledge base. Crawl your website or upload files (PDF, Word, TXT, Markdown, CSV, JSON or HTML). On Business the crawler refreshes weekly, and daily on White Label, so answers stay current without re-uploading.
4. Connect a phone number and channels. Start with call forwarding from one existing line so callers dial the same number. Then attach numbers properly: buy one inside Convocore, connect your own Twilio account, or bring your carrier over SIP trunking.
5. Run both side by side. Send one channel, one number or after hours traffic to Convocore for about 14 days while Bland AI handles the rest. Read transcripts daily and fix gaps in the prompt or knowledge base.
6. Cut over, then cancel. Move the rest of the traffic once quality matches your Bland AI baseline, keep Bland AI live for a few days as a fallback, then cancel or downgrade.

What transfers

Knowledge base

Transfers fully. Re-crawl the same URLs or upload the same files. Workspace limits are 25,000 documents on Pro, 100,000 on Business and 500,000 on White Label.

Prompts and instructions

Copy over as text. Remove Bland AI specific variable syntax and function names, then retest each tool call.

Phone numbers

Keep them. Numbers on Twilio connect through your own Twilio account; numbers on another carrier connect over SIP trunking or can be ported. Forward calls during a port so no calls drop.

Integrations

Not copied automatically; reconnect them. Calendar and email integrations are on every paid plan, CRM integrations and live handoff start on Pro, and webhooks, the full REST API and MCP start on Business.

Conversation history

Stays in Bland AI. Export transcripts and recordings you need for records before you cancel. Convocore logs every conversation from the first day.

Timeline

A single agent with a few tools usually takes 2 to 5 days to rebuild, then a 14 day parallel run. Plan 2 to 3 weeks end to end per agent, faster for copies of the same agent.

Cost of running both

Expect to pay for both for about one billing cycle. Voice starts on Business at $99 a month ($66 a month billed annually) with 2 number slots, 3 concurrent calls and $25 of monthly usage credit; call minutes beyond that are billed as usage. Agencies running client accounts use White Label at $199 a month. Keep Bland AI until the parallel run ends and check its notice period first so the overlap stays to one month.
