We’re thrilled to announce a strategic partnership between Gladia and Daily, the team behind Pipecat, aimed at revolutionizing real-time conversational AI. This collaboration combines our cutting-edge audio intelligence capabilities with their flexible 100% open-source framework, empowering developers to create more dynamic, multilingual, and context-aware voice AI applications.
Pipecat is a vendor-neutral framework designed to simplify the creation of voice and multimodal conversational agents. It allows developers to orchestrate LLM models and AI services effortlessly, enabling the development of video and voice applications such as personal coaches, meeting assistants, and customer support bots.
Pipecat is maintained by Daily with the support of the global developer community. Daily is a leader in developer tooling and global WebRTC infrastructure since 2016. Earlier this year Daily announced Pipecat Cloud, the first open source voice AI cloud.
Why This Partnership Matters
At Gladia, we believe the future of human-AI interaction lies in systems that understand and respond in real-time, just like humans do. Pushing the boundaries of ultra low latency conversational AI is key to bridging the gap between humans and machines, enabling more natural, intuitive communication. In today’s world, where seamless interactions are crucial, having AI that can understand diverse languages and contexts is essential for real collaboration in customer support, meetings, and beyond.
This partnership with Pipecat goes beyond technology—it empowers developers to easily create intelligent, adaptable, multilingual voice AI applications that break down barriers and foster meaningful interactions. By combining Gladia's language processing with Pipecat's flexible framework, we can enable the creation of robust voice platforms that meet the needs of a wide range of use cases.
