About

PolyAI is an enterprise voice AI platform that builds conversational agents capable of handling customer calls and resolving them without escalation to a human agent. The company positions its product around "agentic dialog" — agents that manage critical business conversations across voice and text channels rather than simply deflecting calls.

The platform consists of Dialog Studio, a no-code-to-full-code environment for designing agent flows, tools, and brand voice, and Wren, a dialog agent that helps teams design, build, test, and continuously optimize the agents they deploy. PolyAI develops its own dialog models, including Dialog-RSN-1, an audio-native model that reasons directly over raw call audio to handle turn-taking, speech recognition, and response in a single model. Developers can sign up at studio.poly.ai, start free, and build with the ADK, MCP servers, or public REST and WebSocket APIs. Enterprise deployments run on the same platform under contract, with pre-built integrations into existing CRM and contact center stacks.

Key Features

Dialog-RSN-1 model: The flagship audio-native model processes raw call audio directly, combining turn-taking, recognition, and response with sub-300ms production latency and a 3.7% word error rate.
Dialog Studio: A single environment for building agent flows, tools, and brand voice, supporting everything from no-code visual design to full code without switching platforms.
Wren dialog agent: An assistant that helps teams design, build, test, and continuously optimize every agentic dialog experience they deploy.
Omnichannel text model: Dialog-RAVEN-3.5 handles webchat, SMS, and messaging in multiple languages, carrying the same agent across channels.
Enterprise integrations: Pre-built connectors (including Salesforce and Zendesk), a self-serve Connect Portal, and open APIs connect agents to existing systems; carriers can connect over SIP at no charge.
Security and compliance: SOC 2+ Type 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and GDPR certifications, with SIP/TLS + SRTP encryption, SSO/RBAC, and data residency options in the US, UK, EU, and APAC with no cross-region transfer.
Developer tooling: A Python ADK (`polyai-adk` on PyPI), hosted MCP servers, public APIs, a CLI, and documentation at docs.poly.ai.

Who It's For

PolyAI targets enterprise contact center and customer experience teams in industries such as healthcare, financial services, insurance, hotels, restaurants, retail, telecom, travel, and utilities. Typical use cases include authentication, call routing, billing and payments, booking and reservations, account management, order management, troubleshooting, and FAQ handling.
