# From Voice Demo to Enterprise Production


- **Date:** Thursday, Sep 24, 2026
- **Time:** 11:00–11:30 (30 min)
- **Room:** Stage 4
- **Event:** World Congress 2026 North America

## Description

Building a Voice AI demo takes a weekend; production engineering is a different beast. This session delivers the architectural playbook for scaling resilient, enterprise-grade voice agents.
We will evaluate speech-to-speech versus modular (STT → LLM → TTS) pipelines, WebRTC stacks, and hybrid topographies for strict data residency. You will learn fast-brain/slow-brain UX patterns to keep turn-taking responsive while backends process tool calls, alongside strategies for runtime model switching and custom vocabulary.
Walk away with the exact trade-offs, patterns, and metrics needed to operate low-latency voice pipelines at scale.
