Calling Social Security about benefits
You need to call the Social Security Administration to ask about your benefits status and request a form for Medicare enrollment.
KallyAIHow KallyAI Handles It
KallyAI calls SSA, navigates their extensive phone tree, waits through the typically long hold time (often 45-90 minutes), explains your inquiry, asks about benefits and Medicare enrollment, and provides you with the information and any required next steps.
AlexaHow Alexa Handles It
Alexa can dial the SSA phone number, but you must sit through the entire hold time and conversation yourself. For a 60-minute hold, Alexa saves you zero time - it only dials.
The Verdict
KallyAI is invaluable for government calls with extreme wait times. Alexa provides virtually no benefit - you still spend an hour or more on hold. KallyAI reclaims that time entirely.
