I built this because Voice AI is moving fast and I couldn't find a single place that walks a developer from "what is a voice agent" through to production telephony, evals, and the FCC/EU AI Act stuff you actually need to know before shipping.

Every citations are verified and active, tagged Beginner/Intermediate/ Advanced, and grouped so you can read it top-to-bottom:

foundations →

pick a framework (LiveKit or Pipecat) →

swap in STT/TTS/LLM components →

add WebRTC or SIP →

evals and production. →

What's intentionally not in there: - Vendor-locked tutorials presented as neutral guides (flagged where authors have commercial interests) - Anything that hasn't been updated in the last 12 months

Sections I'd most welcome feedback on: the open-source TTS picks (this moves weekly), the evaluation tooling (newest category), and whether the suggested 5-week learning path is realistic.

PRs and harsh critique both welcome.
