About Pipecat
Pipecat is designed for low-latency, multimodal agent experiences where audio, video, and streaming interactions matter as much as text completion. It gives developers a structured way to build voice agents and interactive AI systems.
It expands Cubbie's coverage into a modern part of the agent market that feels very different from classic SaaS and increasingly important for support, sales, and assistant use cases.

Evals
Clarify during review
Open source plus agent-runtime, model, or workflow consumption should be clarified during procurement.
Human oversight
Approval gates
- Clarify which actions pause for human review versus execute automatically.
- Document whether admins can require approval before outbound messages, record updates, purchases, or payments.
- Confirm that approval events are visible in audit logs and trace history.
Systems
Connected systems and execution surfaces
Connected systems
- CRM, support, docs, browser, messaging, and custom APIs should be documented before rollout.
- Check whether admins can scope tool access by workflow, user role, or environment.
- Ask which systems are first-class integrations versus custom connectors.

Models
Model stack, observability, and evals
Model stack
- Supported model providers and routing controls should be explicit.
- Clarify fallback behavior between providers, models, or prompts.
- Check whether model choice is buyer-configurable by workflow.
Observability
- Trace visibility across prompts, tool calls, latency, and cost.
- Audit trail for approvals, failures, retries, and handoffs.
- Operational analytics that help teams understand run quality over time.
Eval coverage
- Regression datasets for critical workflows and prompts.
- Task-success or rubric-based scoring on agent outcomes.
- Human-review loops to validate edge cases before broad rollout.
Governance
Data boundaries and fallbacks
- Retention windows, model-training policy, and tenant isolation should be explicit.
- Per-tool permissions and least-privilege access matter for production rollout.
- Confirm PII handling, redaction controls, and region or residency options.
Pipecat should document how runs pause, retry, escalate, or hand off when confidence drops or a tool step fails.
