Who is this handbook for

This handbook is intended for operations managers, IT teams, and hospitality professionals who want to integrate AI voice automation into their telephony systems. Whether you’re looking to provide 24/7 reception, automate appointment scheduling, or offer AI-powered customer support, this guide outlines how to get started with Myma.ai Voice Agents and the core features that power them.


Getting Started

Myma.ai now supports full voice integration, enabling you to deploy AI Phone Agents within your existing telephony infrastructure.

Similar to Myma.ai’s messaging assistants, there is no need to manage complex AI models or configure custom call flows. Simply upload business documents or FAQs to the intuitive Myma.ai dashboard, and the AI Voice Agent will be ready to answer customer calls in real time. You can also guide the agent with specific conversation flows tailored to your use case.



Business Scenarios

Voice Agents can support a range of real-world business applications:

Inbound Sales

Boost your conversion rate as much as 8x by calling inbound leads the moment they fill out your website form.

Customer Support

Offer a 24/7 support agent to answer customers’ questions and collect their contact info to call back later.

Appointment Setting

Inbound and outbound calling for appointment scheduling, cancellation, and rescheduling

Office Receptionist

24/7 receptionist who will take incoming calls, answer questions, and transfer calls based on party availability.

User Feedback Interview

A satisfaction survey to gather feedback on a recent experience with a service.


Features that Empower

All the Voice Agents come with features that every business needs.

Live Call Transfers

Transfer calls to the appropriate department or staff member based on the caller’s request

Natural-Sounding Voice Selection

Select from a diverse range of human-like voices that accurately reflect your brand's personality.

Call Recording

Record every call for training, compliance, or future reference.

Call Transcription

Convert speech to text to enable easier documentation, search, and analysis.

Sentiment Analysis

Detect tone and emotion in the caller’s voice to guide real-time responses or flag issues.

SMS Follow-up

Send SMS confirmations, links, or forms after the call to continue the conversation.

Custom Conversation Flows

Write plain-language flows and let the AI recognize and respond accordingly.

API Integration

Connect to your internal systems to fetch data or trigger actions based on the conversation.

Ticket Workflows

Automatically convert conversations into actionable tickets for your team.


Technology Options

There are two options to choose from:

STT > AI Processing > TTS

Audio Realtime Streaming

This technology converts user speech into text using Speech-to-Text (STT), processes it with AI, and then uses Text-to-Speech (TTS) to convert the response back into spoken audio.

In this technology, there is a continuous transmission of live audio data between the user and the system without intermediate text conversion.

ℹ️ Use Case:
Used in systems where voice is a layer over text-based logic, like virtual assistants, IVR systems, or accessibility tools.

ℹ️ Use Case:

Ideal for live conversations, such as in voice agents, call centers, or AI avatars where low latency and natural interaction are crucial.

✅ Pros:

  • Easier to debug and log (since interactions are text-based).

  • Text processing opens up more NLP options, like sentiment analysis, intent detection, etc.

  • Lower bandwidth requirements.

  • Ability to hook different vendors for STT, AI processing, and TTS, opening up more options.

✅ Pros:

  • Low latency: Faster and more natural real-time interaction.

  • Natural user experience: Captures tone, emotion, and pauses more effectively.

  • Better suited for two-way voice conversations.

❌ Cons:

  • Higher latency due to conversion steps.

  • Less natural experience; may sound robotic or disjointed.

  • Loss of non-verbal cues (intonation, emotion, pauses).

❌ Cons:

  • Requires high bandwidth and stable connections.

  • More complex infrastructure for stream handling and processing.

  • Limited logging/analytics in comparison to the other option.

  • Usually, a single vendor provides the complete end-to-end streaming solution e.g., OpenAI and Deepgram.

Integrating to Telephony

To connect your Voice Agent to live calls, Myma.ai uses SIP gateway integration. Your telephony provider will forward calls to Myma.ai’s gateway. This setup typically requires coordination and configuration between your technical team and ours.

If needed, Myma.ai will support you during the SIP provisioning process.

With flexible integration options, a range of natural voice actors, and tools like transcription, live transfer, and sentiment analysis, these agents are built to support modern business needs.

Whether you're looking to replace a front desk, boost sales, or reduce call center load, Myma.ai gives you the infrastructure to do it.
