Rapida AI
What it is
Rapida AI is an open-source platform for building and running voice AI agents across phone, web, WhatsApp, and SIP. It supports speech processing with voice activity detection and noise cancellation, knowledge retrieval, language-model routing, and live call transfer. Teams can use or switch among their own speech-to-text, text-to-speech, and language-model providers without changing application logic. Documented connections include telephony, AI, and speech providers such as Twilio, Vonage, Asterisk, OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Deepgram, and ElevenLabs. Agents can call HTTP endpoints during conversations and sync information from Notion, GitHub, HubSpot, and Jira. For operations, Rapida offers traces, transcripts, call monitoring, handoff visibility, and request and webhook logs. It is available as a managed cloud service or for self-hosting. The maker says self-hosting keeps audio, transcripts, and customer data on the team's infrastructure; setup requires Docker and at least 4 GB RAM for Voice Only, or 8–16 GB with the knowledge base. Launch is free; Scale costs $500 a month, and Grow costs $2,000 a month.

The verdict
Rapida AI combines voice-agent tools, provider choice, and operational visibility, with managed and self-hosted deployment options. Teams should account for self-hosting requirements or the paid plans' costs and limits.
Who it suits
Rapida AI suits agencies, enterprise teams, contact center operators, CPaaS and CCaaS companies, and developers building voice agents. Agencies can create client-branded assistants and keep workspaces separate.
