Products that do what Mixpanel for Voice AI Agents does
Hi, I’m Tom Shapland, the cofounder of Canonical AI. LLMs have changed the paradigm for Voice AI. Compared to rule-based systems (Siri, Alexa, Amazon Polly), LLM-based Voice AI agents understand the intent of the caller and can more often resolve the issue without escalation to a human agent. Moreover, with LLM-based Voice AI agents, developers can build a Voice AI agent more quickly, onboard customers quicker, and iterate on the product faster. Our customers’ Voice AI agents are doing amazing things. It’s so much fun to see the agents achieve the caller’s objective, even in the face of…

I found myself building a bunch of LLM-backed features that needed to use tool calling, and some of those tools involved doing things that were somewhat high stakes - communicating on my behalf or modifying shared / production data. one example - I wanted to replace a marketing website with a chatbot + vector DB loaded with the previous content, docs, and blog posts. Between hallucinations, missing knowledge base info, and the LLM generally writing like an psuedo-intellectual high schooler, I realized I couldn't trust it to communicate unsupervised with my website visitors. I needed a…

Hi HN, TL;DR Mirror AI is a cross-platform desktop action oriented LLM. Instead of just replying with text, it can run terminal commands, move files, hit APIs, send email/messages, schedule calendar events, query databases etc. - and chain those steps in one request. Why I built it Chatbots are great for answers but stop at the “OK, now go do it” moment. I was copy-pasting between ChatGPT and my shell/IDE/Gmail far too often, so on red-eye flights I hacked a bridge that lets an LLM execute tasks under a permission layer. Friends asked for it, feature-creep happened, and here…

I'm Tom, the cofounder of Canonical AI. I build a Voice AI agent that interviews you, then writes LinkedIn and X posts based on the interview. ### Why did I build this? 1. LinkedIn and X are b2b lead goldmines. But generating content is hard. You have to figure out what to say. If you're like me, you have trouble coming up with social post ideas when staring at a blank screen. But interesting ideas arrive when I step away from my laptop and talk to people. Also, it's hard to compose the content in a way that appeases the platform algorithms. 2. I want to dogfood my product. We’re building…

Hi HN, I'm the creator of AVA - AI Voice Agent for Asterisk My repo was shared here once before by someone else so I wanted to follow up with the progress since then. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46380399 I've been working with Asterisk/FreePBX systems for years. I wanted to add AI voice capabilities to legacy phone systems without paying per-minute SaaS fees or ripping out the entire telephony stack. So I built AVA, a self-hosted AI voice agent that can integrate into any traditional phone system. While most solutions demand expensive migrations to cloud-only…

Hey HN, it’s Russ - cofounder of LiveKit. An open source stack for building realtime AI applications. We’re sharing our first homegrown AI model for turn detection. Here’s a live demo: https://cerebras.vercel.app/ Voice AI has come a long way in the last year. We now have end-to-end systems that can generate a response to user input in 300-500ms — human level speeds! As latency reduces, a common problem that surfaces is the LLM responds too quickly. Any time there’s a short pause in a user’s speech, it ends up interrupting them. This is largely due to how voice AI applications…

At testup.io we have been working for a while to bring artificial intelligence to the field of test automation. Just a few years ago, the primary challenge laid in accurately identifying UI elements following minor structural changes, such as updates to IDs or paths. The emergence of Large Language Models (LLMs) raised the bar for what it meant to be smart. Now, we anticipate the robot to do lots of things autonomously, such as retry in cases of unresponsiveness or handle minor error reports. A more challenging, but soon expected feature, would involve the test robot navigating your web shop…
