A toll booth for your attention
Your attention
isn't toll-free.
Tollist answers your calls, charges the caller a toll, and proves intent with a micropayment. Spam gets expensive. Real communication doesn't.
The asymmetry
Senders scale infinitely.
Recipients are still one human.
A sales team can blast a hundred thousand calls with one click. The person picking up is alone: one attention, one hour, one inbox. Machines scale. Attention doesn't. That asymmetry is the whole problem.

A real call worth your time costs the caller $0.05 to prove intent. A spam blast of 100,000 calls now costs $5,000 before a single human picks up. The economics do the filtering.
People you knowNumbers in your contact list skip the toll entirely. They can leave a message or request a callback for free. No micropayment, no friction. The toll is for strangers and spam, not your mom, your coworker, or anyone already in your phone.
