Even the smallest businesses make plenty of calls on a daily basis. However, this can interfere with work processes and make collaborations less productive. Adopting a technology capable of solving inconveniences associated with traditional phone systems can potentially be a huge benefit. Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) allows businesses to make calls over a computer or other data-driven devices. Also, it offers call forwarding, caller ID, voicemail, SMS, and video calls.

No matter how skilled your live agents are, there’s a limit to how many customers they can attend to at once. Some customers will have to wait awhile for their calls to be answered—if they get answered at all. From a customer’s perspective, no one wants to be on hold for a long time. What kind of a customer service experience is sitting to elevator music for 5, 10, 30, 60 minutes? As your business grows, you’ll need effective systems in place to handle high call volumes in a timely manner. That’s where an interactive voice response (IVR) comes in. In some cases, a simple implementation of an IVR is also called a phone tree.

Interview with Alexey Aylarov: Are we approaching the era of takeovers?

Case studies from the largest fast food chains

Speech by Alexey Aylarov, CEO of Voximplant at Intercom Conference

Today, these technologies are widely used by large businesses - banks, airlines, online stores - to communicate with customers. In this article, we’ll look at what has changed since the first assistant appeared eight years ago.

As of October 1, 2019, we will release new versions of mobile SDKs to remove legacy APIs.

Now Smartcalls users can choose from a set of affordable plans, integrate with an existing SIP, and enroll into the beta program of Dialogflow and Smartcalls engagement – a next-level solution, that will easily enrich call scenarios with an IVR of any complexity.

The event this year will focus on client experience improvement and RPA: INTERCOM Europe ‘19 is built around client experience improvement: voice bots for call centers, call management automation, speech synthesis and recognition

Useful take-aways from the event

There are client libraries for a number of popular languages to help you with app development whether the language you use.

Learn how a Voice AI Orchestration Platform connects LLMs, STT/TTS, turn‑taking, and telephony (PSTN, SIP, WebRTC) to build reliable real‑time voice agents. See benefits, architecture, and how Voximplant helps.

Today Ultravox announced they are directly integrating Voximplant into their platform to provide SIP capabilities. The integration builds on Voximplant’s deep telephony and Voice AI tooling

Voximplant now lets developers build full-cascade voice AI pipelines in VoxEngine without sacrificing turn-taking quality.

Voximplant now includes a native Deepgram module that connects any Voximplant call to Deepgram’s Voice Agent API for real-time, speech‑to‑speech conversations. You can stream audio from phone numbers, SIP trunks, WhatsApp, or WebRTC into Deepgram’s unified agent environment—combining STT, LLM reasoning, and TTS—and play responses via Voximplant’s serverless runtime with minimal latency.

Voximplant now includes a native Grok module that connects any Voximplant call to xAI’s Grok Voice Agent API for real-time, speech-to-speech conversations. With a single VoxEngine scenario, you can interact via audio with Grok over phone numbers, SIP trunks and infrastructure, WhatsApp Business, or WebRTC into Grok — all without building custom media gateways or WebSocket streaming infrastructure.

How Jev and other decision models help LLM voice bots with topic routing, turn detection, barge-in, form filling, action checks and model choice.

Voximplant now includes a native MCP Client for VoxEngine, giving developers direct connectivity to any MCP server and full control over every tool call

A practical guide to running a compliant voice AI stack on Voximplant: EU data residency, compliance documentation, and what to verify at each layer — telephony, LLM, STT, and TTS
