AI-Powered Customer Communication System (Vapi + Twilio + OpenAI)
📋 Project Overview
I built a next-generation communication system that transforms how businesses handle calls and texts.
This setup combines Vapi and Twilio to automatically manage voice and SMS interactions through a single webhook, while an AI Agent (OpenAI) processes and stores conversations for smart follow-ups.
⚡ Problem
The client needed a way to streamline customer communication across calls and texts without constant manual intervention. Traditional systems lacked memory, required multiple platforms, and slowed down urgent response times.
💡 My Role & Responsibilities
System Architecture: Designed an end-to-end workflow connecting Vapi, Twilio, and OpenAI for seamless call/SMS handling.
Database Integration: Built a Postgres database to store conversation history and vector embeddings for AI memory.
Slack Alerts & Automation: Configured Slack notifications for urgent issues and automated follow-ups for routine interactions.
Testing & Optimization: Verified low-latency performance and reliable webhook operations.
✨ Key Features
Unified call + SMS management through one webhook.
AI-powered conversation analysis and memory of past interactions.
Automatic urgent alerts sent directly to Slack.
Smart follow-ups without human input.
Scalable Postgres storage with vector embeddings for contextual replies.
