## What it is
An open-source AI voice agent that integrates with Asterisk/FreePBX phone systems via Audiosocket/RTP, built in Python with a modular pipeline for mixing STT, LLM, and TTS providers. It ships with an admin UI, Docker deployment, preflight tooling, and production-ready provider baselines.

## Use cases
- add an AI voice agent to my Asterisk PBX
- answer inbound calls with an LLM-powered agent on FreePBX
- build a phone bot that transcribes speech and replies with TTS
- self-host an AI receptionist for my VoIP system
- connect STT, LLM, and TTS providers to Asterisk calls
- automate call handling with an open-source voice bot

## When to choose
- you run Asterisk or FreePBX and want AI call automation without vendor lock-in
- you need to mix and match STT/LLM/TTS providers per deployment
- you want a self-hosted, MIT-licensed voice agent with Docker deployment

## When to avoid
- you don't operate an Asterisk/FreePBX or other SIP telephony stack
- you need a hosted SaaS voice agent with no infrastructure to manage
- you need non-telephony voice assistants like smart speakers or mobile apps
