AI-powered customer conversation platform for B2C messaging at scale
Bring WhatsApp, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Telegram, email and web chat into one shared inbox so no customer thread gets lost between apps.
AI agents qualify leads, answer routine questions, route to the right teammate and follow up automatically when conversations go quiet.
Track tags, custom fields, lead status and lifecycle stage per contact, and move deals through a pipeline without a separate CRM.
Reach thousands of customers with one message, and capture new leads directly from social ads and website links.
OpenAI's open-source speech recognition model for transcription, translation and language ID
One Transformer handles transcription, speech translation into English, language identification and voice activity detection, selected through special task tokens.
Choose from tiny, base, small, medium, large and turbo checkpoints, with English-only .en variants, to balance accuracy against VRAM and speed.
Multilingual checkpoints transcribe and translate dozens of languages, with automatic language detection on mixed-language audio.
Install via pip with openai-whisper and transcribe files from the terminal or from your own Python code, with ffmpeg handling audio decoding.
