Automated voice AI agent testing and monitoring

Hamming automates the QA of voice agents. (both pre-deployment testing and post-deployment analytics) Making voice AI agents reliable is hard. A small change in prompts, function call definitions, or model providers can cause large changes in LLM outputs. We have a proven track record of helping enterprises win with AI. Sumanyu (CEO) previously helped Citizen (safety app) grow its users by 4X and grew an AI-powered sales program to 100s of millions in revenue/year at Tesla. Our eng team ranks #1 on https://workweave.ai/

TLDR: Are you testing your voice agents by hand? We're launching Automated AI voice agent testing to automatically test your voice agents and flag quality issues in development and production.

Problem: Making voice agents reliable feels like whack-a-mole

Here's the workflow most teams follow:

  1. Call your voice agent by hand and find bugs. Slow and ad-hoc.
  2. Tweak your voice agents by adding new tools and changing the prompts or models to fix the bugs.
  3. Call again to see if the changes worked.
  4. Detect regressions when users complain of things breaking in production.
  5. Repeat steps 1 to 4 until you get tired.

Calling your voice agent & finding bugs is the slowest & most painful part of the feedback loop. This is what we automate.

Our take: Character AI for voice testing

We create hundreds of characters that simulate how real users interact with your voice agents in real life. For every call, we measure whether our character successfully accomplishes the task (e.g., ordering a vegan burger, canceling next week’s appointment, etc.).

Our automated AI voice agent testing approach is 100x faster, cheaper, and more thorough than manual testing.

Flag errors & Tag calls in production

You can log all call transcripts and traces within Hamming. We actively tag your production calls in real-time, and flag cases the team needs to double-click on. This helps engineering teams quickly prioritize cases they need to fix.

Example tags: human detects that the bot is an AI, a follow-up call is needed, the user requested an urgent appointment, etc.

Test new changes quickly

Simulation-driven development

Let’s imagine you’re building an agent called ‘YC Founder’; we can spin up 100s of VC agents who will try to distract you. You can edit the prompts or models and re-run the simulation to make sure you made progress.

Want to see how you would handle a persistent investor? Try our ‘VC trying to distract founders’ free demo here.

Easily create new characters from call transcripts

When customers complain about a bad call, you can locate the call transcript and create a new character in one click. Make a change to your prompt, and then run the simulations to ensure you addressed the bad call.
