Frequently Asked Questions

What metrics does Hamming AI use to measure voice and conversational quality? Can I define my metrics?

Hamming AI uses standard conversational metrics like turn-taking latency, interruptions, time to first word, and more. Users can also define their own metrics for both testing voice agents in pre-production and auditing real-world calls in production.

Does Hamming AI cover IVRs, outbound dialling, and DTMF?

Yes, Hamming AI emulates IVR menus, sends DTMF tones, and tests both inbound and outbound agent flows end-to-end.

Is Hamming AI compliant with HIPAA regulations?

Hamming AI is HIPAA compliant, ensuring the privacy and security of health information. It is also in the process of achieving SOC-2 compliance, adhering to stringent data protection standards.

How quickly can I set up and run my first test call with Hamming AI?

You can initiate your first test call within 15 minutes. Hamming AI allows you to dial a SIP number or connect directly to platforms like LiveKit or Pipecat for WebRTC, facilitating rapid testing and deployment.
