Voice AI Agents

Voice AI agents that hold a real conversation, at volume.

Screening interviews, inbound enquiries, appointments, verification calls and multilingual support — handled by an agent deployed inside your own environment.

Diagram titled 'Real conversations. Real outcomes. Real impact.' showing a Voice AI Agent at the centre, connected to screening interviews, inbound enquiries, appointment handling, verification and follow-up, multilingual support, and surveys and feedback — and to the caller's CRM, helpdesk, calendar, ERP and knowledge base. A footer row reads 'Private. Secure. Yours.' with under-1-second response latency, high call volumes handled without compromise, human handoff when it matters, and call recordings staying in your control.
Where it works

Voice is harder than chat

Interruptions, accents, silence, someone talking over the agent — it has to handle all of it in under a second, or the caller hangs up. We have run a voice agent in production at interview volume, which is why we can talk about latency and barge-in from experience rather than a datasheet.

What we engineer for

A response that starts before the caller thinks the line has dropped. Barge-in that stops the agent mid-sentence and listens. Recovery on a bad line, a heavy accent or a noisy room — the normal case, not the edge case.

Where we say no

Distressed callers, complex complaints, anything where being misunderstood carries real cost. Those calls belong to people, and a wrong answer said confidently is worse on a call than in text.

How we build it

Latency is a design constraint, not a metric

Every part of the pipeline is chosen against the clock: how fast speech is recognised, how quickly the model starts producing, how soon the first audio reaches the caller. Private hosting helps here — the inference sits next to the telephony rather than across a public API.

Call recordings and transcripts are personal data. They stay in the environment you approve.

  1. 01
    Speech in, fast

    Streaming recognition tuned for your callers' accents and vocabulary, not a generic model.

  2. 02
    Turn-taking and barge-in

    The agent stops when interrupted, handles silence, and does not talk over the caller.

  3. 03
    Grounded conversation

    A defined script boundary with your systems behind it, so the agent can check and act mid-call.

  4. 04
    Handoff to a person

    A live transfer with the transcript and context, on defined triggers — including the caller simply asking.

  5. 05
    Consent and retention

    Disclosure at the start of the call, retention you set, storage in your region. How we deploy privately →

A voice agent that conducts screening interviews

The problem
We needed to screen candidates at volume without losing signal. First-round calls are structured and repetitive, but they still take a person's hour and the notes vary by interviewer.
What we built
A voice agent that runs the structured first round: asks the questions, follows up on thin answers, handles interruption and silence, and produces a consistent written assessment against the same criteria for every candidate.
What we learned
Most of the engineering went into the parts nobody demos — turn-taking, recovery when the line is bad, knowing when to stop and pass the call to a person. That is the work we bring to your build.
Status
Running in production as a product. Candidates speak to it; our team reads the assessments.

Tell us about the calls nobody has time to make.

A discovery session is a working conversation, not a demo. We will tell you which of your calls should stay with people.
