Hands-On Workshop: Building a Voice-Enabled AI Agent That Actually Understands You
In this interactive workshop with Startup Boston and OrangeLoops, you’ll explore how to build a voice-enabled AI agent that doesn’t just talk - it understands. You’ll learn how to combine the magic of natural conversation with the power of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), so your AI can access real company data, interpret it accurately, and respond with context and confidence.
You’ll discover how to:
Design conversational experiences that feel natural and productive
Connect your voice agent to internal documentation, policies, or knowledge bases using RAG.
Apply these capabilities to enterprise use cases like navigating HR policies, onboarding new employees, or surfacing technical information on demand
Through a guided, hands-on enterprise scenario, you’ll move from setup to live interaction - building an agent that listens, reasons, and responds in real time.
Bring your laptop, curiosity, and your voice. You’ll leave with a working prototype, a solid understanding of how voice AI and RAG work together, and a new perspective on how conversational agents can transform knowledge access and automation inside your organization.
