Build Your Own AI Voice System with Asterisk and AVR
AVR combines enterprise-grade technology with powerful features, giving you complete control over your voice AI solution while maintaining flexibility and scalability.
Bring your own ASR/LLM/TTS and integrate it with AVR following a simple protocol. Full freedom to choose your preferred providers.
Users can interrupt the AI and speak at any time, creating a more natural conversational flow with advanced VAD technology.
Every component runs in its own Docker container for easy scaling and deployment. Secure and isolated architecture.
Built-in and extensible support for OpenAI/Anthropic-style function calls, enabling complex voice interactions.

Note: If you already have your contact center on Asterisk, you don't need to do anything, but with the Asterisk AudioSocket application, you can connect your extension directly with AVR. Asterisk version 18 or later is required as it contains the precompiled AudioSocket application.
AVR is provided free of charge for personal and commercial use. If you find value in our project and want to support its continued development, please consider making a donation. Your contribution helps us maintain and improve the platform.
If you already have your contact center on Asterisk, you don't need to do anything! With the Asterisk AudioSocket application (available in Asterisk 18+), you can connect your existing extensions directly to AVR. No complex migration is needed.
Yes, AVR is provided free of charge for personal and commercial use. You only pay for the third-party ASR/LLM/TTS services you choose to integrate. Please note that the source code is not distributed and remains the intellectual property of the author(s).
Basic knowledge of Docker and Docker Compose is essential for deployment. Familiarity with Asterisk configuration (specifically `extensions.conf` and `ari.conf`) is helpful for integration. Understanding how to obtain and configure API keys for your chosen AI services (ASR, LLM, TTS) is also required.
AVR currently has built-in support for Google, Deepgram, and ElevenLabs (ASR/TTS), OpenAI and Anthropic (LLM, Function Calling, Assistants), and OpenRouter (LLM). However, its plug-and-play architecture allows you to integrate other providers by adapting them to the simple AVR service protocol.
