Have you ever had a real conversation with a local LLM?
Or even taken a VoIP (SIP) phone call with one?
Check out Kurtis E1: A Fully On-Device MLX Voice Agent.
- GitHub Repo: https://github.com/ethicalabs-ai/Kurtis-E1-MLX-Voice-Agent
- Demo Video 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6BbF0262I8
- Demo Video 2: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/w-YSCyKTR78
The entire stack runs on-device, leveraging MLX-LM for Apple Silicon.
- Whisper for real-time STT
- WebRTC VAD for voice activity detection
- A custom-tuned Qwen #LLM (Kurtis E1) ethicalabs/Kurtis-E1.1-Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct
- Coqui XTTSv2 for natural speech
This showcases the power of local AI/ML. I am also actively developing the SIP #VoIP integration (now in testing). The goal? To let you take a phone call and talk directly with your private agent, even without a computer or internet connection.
While Kurtis isn't built for math/coding, it shows a valuable path forward for on-device workflows.
We are actively looking for partners and clients to build out these POCs into real-world use cases.
https://www.ethicalabs.ai/ isn't a startup. We are not looking for VCs, equity deals, or grants: we're an open-source project.
