Voice AI and Conversational Assistants
Voice assistants people are happy to talk to.
Voice and chat assistants that answer customers naturally on phone, web and WhatsApp.
The problem
Why this matters
Callers hang up on slow, robotic phone systems. A good voice assistant answers at once, understands interruptions and accents, and completes the request.
A voice assistant has to do three things at once: understand speech in real time, decide what to say, and answer quickly enough to feel like a conversation. A slow or robotic reply loses the caller.
We build the full voice pipeline, from phone line or microphone to speech recognition, the AI that decides, and the voice that answers, and we tune it on real calls before launch.
How it works
How it works, step by step
- 1
Listen
Speech is turned into text as the person talks, and the system detects when they have finished.
- 2
Decide
An AI agent works out the answer, using your knowledge base and business systems.
- 3
Speak
The reply is spoken back while it is still being written, so there is no long silence.
- 4
Handle interruptions
If the caller cuts in, the assistant stops and listens, like a person would.
