Pipecat is an open-source framework that orchestrates voice and video streams while linking speech-to-text, large language models, and text-to-speech components to minimize latency in AI applications.

Both Deepgram and Daily participated in the same Y Combinator batch in 2016, and Deepgram models have powered transcription inside Daily products since 2019.

Deepgram rolled out a self-hosted voice AI platform as part of its recent product strategy.

Deepgram co-developed the Real-Time Context Standard open protocol with the Pipecat team to pass audio context metadata—such as whispers, tone, and model guidance—between voice agent components.

Deepgram expanded its Nova-3 speech recognition model to support 55 languages as part of its product strategy.

The Daily engineering team will join Deepgram as part of the acquisition, with Daily co-founder Kwindla Hultman Kramer serving as Deepgram's head of open source while Deepgram sells, supports, and develops Daily's existing product suite.

The Pipecat framework features over 200 integrations and almost 400 contributors, having been built by 18 engineers at Daily.

Daily began experimenting with AI-to-human communication over voice and text around the release of GPT-4, eventually resulting in the Pipecat framework.
