Building a Delivery Reminder System with Twilio’s Answering Machine Detection (AMD) and Node.js

What's this blog post about?

The system uses Twilio's Answering Machine Detection (AMD) feature to determine whether an incoming call is answered by a human or an answering machine. If the call is answered by a human, it plays a delivery reminder message. Otherwise, it leaves a delivery reminder message on the answering machine and sends a reminder message via SMS. The system uses Node.js to make outgoing calls and Twilio's APIs to interact with the phone number and send SMS messages.
