PhoneUse
PhoneUse gives AI agents phones of their own to operate. Agents get cloud Android phones that boot in seconds and scale to hundreds, or real retail iPhones and Androids in a San Francisco rack, tapped by a robot stylus, for apps that detect emulators, with real carrier numbers for SMS and 2FA codes. One MCP server with tools such as acquire, read screen, tap, type, swipe, open app and read SMS plugs into Claude, Cursor, Codex or Windsurf, and there is a Python SDK and REST API. On-demand cloud phones are billed per minute, with flat monthly prices for dedicated and real phones.
