# Exotel Developer Network

> EDN is India's developer community for building AI voice applications, conversational bots, and telephony integrations using Exotel's communication APIs. Our mission: Power the AI Voice revolution in India.

Exotel provides cloud communication APIs for voice calls, SMS, and AI-powered conversational experiences. The Developer Network supports builders creating:

- AI voice bots and virtual receptionists
- Conversational AI applications with Hindi and regional language support
- Call center automation and IVR systems
- WebRTC and telephony integrations
- Voice-first applications for Indian use cases

Key technical considerations:
- Sub-800ms latency is critical for natural voice AI conversations
- India-specific telephony compliance (TRAI regulations, DLT for SMS)
- Multi-language ASR/TTS support for Indian languages
- Integration patterns with OpenAI, Claude, and other LLM providers
