Overview
Phonic is a speech-to-speech voice agent platform built on its own audio foundation models, paired with a separate model for tool calling. It states speech-in to speech-out within 300ms and offers a fully containerised deployment in the customer's own environment. Every customer interaction is kept as a searchable record, with observability and failure-reason evaluations across calls.
