Most developers underestimate how hard voice AI actually is. To build a production-ready calling agent, you need to integrate: – SIP signalling – Real-time audio streaming – Speech-to-text – LLM orchestration – Text-to-speech Each layer introduces latency, failure points, and vendor dependencies. That’s where Siphon comes in. What Siphon Does Siphon acts as a middleware layer between telephony systems and AI models, abstracting the entire pipeline into Python. You define:
