These will allow conversations:

http://www.callfire.com/dev/index.php/Click_to_call_API

http://public.ifbyphone.com/partners/developers

http://cloudvox.com/

See section Connect Cell Phones and Land Lines:

http://www.twilio.com/how-twilio-works

any US or Canadian phone number and connect the caller to that person.Enter one phone number, or many! If you specify multiple numbers, Twilio will ring them all until somebody answers.

Let me know if you need more.

can you have person-to-person conversations through these APIs or is just to broadcast a message or "click 5 to..."

According to above providers they do provide person to person calls, I changed some of the links to be more specific to what you are looking for.

Do you know of other APIs out there Vecdid? I'd be interested in exploring other options. Thanks in advance!

Victor: Yes, at least with Cloudvox and probably the others. Can place calls, receive them, connect two parties, connect two parties plus your script, or let people conference (also controlled by your code).

Home page & tour has the basics, and lots of code samples at http://help.cloudvox.com/ -Troy, Cloudvox
