The 8 Best Platforms To Build Voice AI Agents
Blog post from Stream
Voice assistants like Siri and Alexa are useful for daily tasks but face limitations in handling complex questions and real-time information. The text explores the potential of building advanced AI voice agents using various platforms and SDKs, including Stream, OpenAI, ElevenLabs, Deepgram, Vapi, PlayAI, Pipecat, and Cartesia. These platforms enable developers to create voice applications capable of real-time responses, voice cloning, and integration with multiple services. Use cases for these voice agents range from customer support and sales to gaming and telehealth. The platforms offer varied features like low-latency communication, multilingual support, and compatibility with tools like Slack and Salesforce. As the field evolves, future models are expected to improve in handling interruptions, noise, and latency, with the anticipation of more open-source solutions emerging to challenge existing closed-source options.
