Why OpenAI GPT for this
A voice agent lives or dies on latency. Past about a second of silence the caller assumes the line dropped, so we engineer the whole pipeline around the turn, not around the model.
OpenAI GPT is strongest at the widest tooling ecosystem and mature structured-output support. For voice ai agents that matters because the failure modes of this kind of system tend to cluster exactly there.
The honest trade-off: cost at scale, and a data-handling posture that some regulated buyers will not accept without an enterprise agreement. We say that up front because a stack chosen for fashion rather than fit becomes someone's migration project two years later. We start from the constraint, not the capability, what the system must never do, who signs off, and what happens when it is wrong.
Six weeks to something running in production, not six quarters to a strategy document.

Questions
Which Indian languages are supported?
Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Bengali, Gujarati and Punjabi among others, including code-mixed English. We test on recordings of your real callers, not studio audio.
How fast does it respond?
We target sub-second turn latency end to end, with barge-in so callers can interrupt naturally. Anything slower and callers assume the call has dropped.
Can it transfer to a human?
Yes, warm transfer with the transcript and caller context handed over, so the agent does not ask the customer to repeat themselves.
