Building Voice AI Agents: London Enterprise Builders Meetup
The next generation of voice engagement is not about adding speech to a chatbot. It is about building Voice AI Agents that handle real-world complexity: interruptions, accents, noisy environments, and sub-second latency.
Rasa and Speechmatics are bringing together AI engineers, conversational designers, and AI product leaders for an evening focused on production-ready voice AI.
Why attend?
Most voice assistants fail for one of two reasons: they are too slow to feel natural, or too unreliable for enterprise workflows. This event is about the last 20%, the part that actually determines whether your voice agent ships or gets shelved. We are focusing on speed and reliability together, not as a trade-off.
What we will explore
The latency problem: how Speechmatics' real-time ASR combines with Rasa's agentic orchestration to eliminate the awkward pause that kills trust in AI conversations.
Reliable agentic design: how Rasa's hybrid LLM architecture moves teams from "prompt and pray" to predictable, auditable interactions in banking, telco, and healthcare.
Live demo: a voice agent handling interruptions and complex multi-turn logic in real time.
Honest conversation: food, drinks, and a room full of practitioners talking about what actually works at scale.
