Speech by Alexey Aylarov, CEO of Voximplant at Intercom Conference

In this digest, we will bring you the latest updates to Voximplant Kit. We have added support for outbound WhatsApp messages, Mobile chats, support for ElevenLabs neural voices, and new automated campaign settings.

Voximplant now includes a native Grok module that connects any Voximplant call to xAI’s Grok Voice Agent API for real-time, speech-to-speech conversations. With a single VoxEngine scenario, you can interact via audio with Grok over phone numbers, SIP trunks and infrastructure, WhatsApp Business, or WebRTC into Grok — all without building custom media gateways or WebSocket streaming infrastructure.

Voximplant now includes a native Deepgram module that connects any Voximplant call to Deepgram’s Voice Agent API for real-time, speech‑to‑speech conversations. You can stream audio from phone numbers, SIP trunks, WhatsApp, or WebRTC into Deepgram’s unified agent environment—combining STT, LLM reasoning, and TTS—and play responses via Voximplant’s serverless runtime with minimal latency.

New Features in Voximplant Kit: Update overview We are constantly working to improve our product to make it easier to use and more effective for you. In this update, we have added several useful features. Here’s what’s new:
