Calling the DMV about license renewal
You need to call the DMV to ask about license renewal requirements and schedule an appointment.
KallyAIHow KallyAI Handles It
KallyAI calls your local DMV, endures the notoriously long hold time (often 45-90 minutes), navigates to the right department, asks about renewal requirements for your specific situation, and attempts to schedule an appointment - saving you potentially hours of waiting on hold.
Google DuplexHow Google Duplex Handles It
Google Duplex does not support government office calls. It cannot call the DMV, Social Security, IRS, or any government agency. You would need to make this call yourself and wait on hold.
The Verdict
KallyAI is essential for government calls - perhaps the most valuable use case given the extreme hold times. Google Duplex offers no solution for government office communication.
