mdbackman··on Launch HN: Uplift (YC S25) – Voice models for under-served languages
Hi! Pipecat maintainer here. There is no Windows restriction for Pipecat, in general. The DailyTransport does not support Windows, but works on WSL. Though, you don't have to use the DailyTransport. Pipecat has interchangeable transport support. You can do all of your testing on a free, P2P WebRTC transport (SmallWebRTCTransport, based on aiortc) without system restrictions.

Reach out on Discord if you have any challenges.

mdbackman··on Show HN: Voice bots with 500ms response times
Very, very impressive! It's incredibly fast, maybe too fast, but I think that's the point. What's most impressive though is how the VAD and interruptions are tuned. That was, by far, the most natural sounding conversation I've had with an agent. Really excited to try this out once it's available.
