Local Voice AI Gateway

A lightweight Docker container (under 500MB) that brings multi-modal voice AI processing to any application without cloud dependencies. Developers can add voice understanding to apps while keeping data private and offline.

Privacy regulations like GDPR and HIPAA are pushing enterprises away from cloud voice APIs, and the edge AI movement — driven by better quantized models like Whisper.cpp and faster ARM chips — makes local inference genuinely viable now in a way it wasn't two years ago. Deepgram is the closest cloud incumbent, and its pricing model is exactly the kind of dependency cost-conscious or compliance-constrained teams want to escape. The $1k–5k/mo revenue band is realistic only if this targets a narrow vertical like healthcare or legal where buyers will pay for a self-hosted SLA, because selling generic developer tooling at that price point means finding dozens of paying customers before it covers real engineering costs. The biggest risk is distribution: Docker Hub is a graveyard of abandoned containers, and without a clear go-to-market into a specific regulated industry, it sits undiscovered while the underlying open-source models it wraps remain free.
