Build an AI Voice Assistant with Twilio Voice, OpenAI’s Realtime API, and Python
Blog post from Twilio
In this tutorial, learn how to build an AI voice assistant using Twilio Voice and the OpenAI Realtime API, powered by Python and the FastAPI web framework. The project involves setting up a Twilio Media Stream server to receive audio from a phone call, processing it using the OpenAI Realtime API, and then sending the AI's audio response back to Twilio and on to the caller. This allows for fluid AI conversations that feel just like human interaction. Prerequisites include Python 3.9+, a Twilio account, a Twilio number with Voice capabilities, an OpenAI account and API Key, and access to the OpenAI Realtime API.
