Provider-agnostic Go engine for low-latency STT→LLM→TTS voice pipelines — streaming engines behind uniform interfaces, swap vendors with a config change. Owns the hot path.

xPhone (Go version)

The embedded telephony data plane for Go. Place and answer calls on any SIP trunk — or be the trunk — with carrier failover, full SIP-signaling visibility, and call audio delivered as PCM frames on a channel, ready for STT or a voice agent. Battle-tested across 500,000+ production calls.
