Voice AI developers and product engineering teams that need an open source framework to build, orchestrate, and deploy real-time voice or multimodal AI agents across web, mobile, and production environments

About Pipecat

Pipecat is an open source framework and ecosystem for building real-time voice and multimodal conversational AI agents. It gives developers everything they need to create, deploy, and scale AI applications that can see, hear, and speak, while orchestrating audio, video, AI services, transports, and conversation pipelines with ultra-low latency. The core Pipecat framework is a Python-based system for building voice and multimodal AI pipelines, helping teams connect components such as speech-to-text, LLMs, text-to-speech, vision, video, transports, and business logic without manually wiring every service from scratch. Pipecat is designed to be vendor-neutral and composable, supporting more than 100 AI services so developers can choose the models and providers that fit each use case. Its ecosystem includes Pipecat Subagents for coordinating specialized agents with handoff, task dispatch, and distributed deployment.
