Problem

Most voice-AI tooling is built and tuned for English first, leaving Urdu speakers underserved by conversational assistants.

Solution

Built an end-to-end Urdu voice-to-voice conversational agent using open-source STT, LLM, and TTS models from Hugging Face, with a RAG pipeline for context-aware responses. Deployed inference on Runpod GPUs with the frontend hosted on Vercel.

Tech Stack

  • Whisper (Hugging Face)Open-source speech-to-text with usable Urdu transcription.
  • RAG pipelineGrounds responses in retrieved context instead of relying on the LLM alone.
  • RunpodCost-efficient GPU inference for the STT/LLM/TTS pipeline.
  • VercelHosts the frontend interface for the assistant.
