Hi HN folks ! I am the author of AVA, a self hosted AI Voice Agent that plugs into Asterisk/Freepbx so you own all the aspects of an AI Voice agent in your own infrastructure.
It uses Asterisk native Audiosocket/RTP with python engine to run STT,LLM and TTS loop. The project support several full providers openai, gemini, grok, elevenlabs out of the box and also provides options to build custom pipelines by choosing different stt tts and llm. It also supports full local agent if you have a GPU with 25GB RAM which enables realtime conversation along with tool calling. I started this as a hobby project last year when I started exploring voice agents and every saw every Saas tried to lock you in their eco system. Since then project has taken off and a lot of asterisk people started using it due to ease of setup and wide range of providers and flexibility. Core is MIT: https://github.com/hkjarral/AVA-AI-Voice-Agent-for-Asterisk Free and open source forever. No install Mock UI us hosted at: https://demo.agent6789.com I am also exploring to convert this into a more polished version for Operators to handle multiple customer and multi tenant environment and I would genuinely like to hear feedback on it. Happy to answer any questions and gather any feedback. Thanks. |
