fixie.ai
AI-based task automation platform for integrating APIs and triggers in workflows.
Developer-first voice AI infrastructure for real-time conversational agents — now operating as Ultravox.ai.
Ultravox (fka Fixie.ai) — speech-native voice AI API for building real-time conversational voice agents.
DB describes this as a task-automation/workflow tool at $29/mo — both are wrong. Fixie.ai has fully rebranded to Ultravox.ai (fixie.ai now redirects there) and pivoted to speech-native voice AI infrastructure. The product is a developer API for building low-latency real-time voice agents that process audio directly without a text-transcription step. Pricing has also changed: entry is free (30 min/mo), usage is $0.05/min after, and the only paid tier is Pro at $100/mo.
Ultravox's speech-native architecture sidesteps the ASR bottleneck that plagues pipeline-based voice stacks. The open-source model on HuggingFace (fixie-ai/ultravox) lets developers benchmark quality before committing API spend. The free playground and usage-based entry tier are genuinely developer-friendly for prototyping.
There is no mid-tier — it jumps from free usage to $100/mo Pro with no stepping stone. SIP/telephony costs ($0.48/min) add up quickly for production call-center workloads, and it requires coding skill; no-code teams are out.
