Introduction
Stop waiting on tickets and tabs. Ask. Act. Done. With Leena Voice
Modern enterprises don’t need another chatbot; they need results. Leena AI Voice is an action‑first voice agent that understands what you say, executes the workflow (tools, APIs, and knowledge), and keeps you in the loop as it finishes the job. It’s natural to talk to, be smart about your business, and, most importantly, fast.
Why voice, and why now?
Two things changed:
- Speech tech finally sounds human. Natural voices and prosody controls (pace, emphasis) make complex instructions easy to follow.
- Enterprise AI grew up. It can now plan, call tools, and complete transactions, not just answer FAQs.
Put together, you get hands‑free productivity. Imagine saying: “Apply PTO for Friday, confirm my balance, and check if my manager needs to approve.” Leena Voice acknowledges instantly, executes in the background, and tells you what’s happening.
What makes Leena AI Voice different
- Action‑first: Not just answers, actions. From HR and IT requests to approvals and lookups, it calls your systems securely and completes the task.
- Feels instant: A lightweight “Voice Orchestrator” acknowledges your request right away, while the core agent executes in parallel.
- Natural and empathetic: Sentiment‑aware phrasing and optional SSML controls keep responses clear, calm, and human.
- Resilient speech stack: Premium text‑to‑speech (primary: ElevenLabs) with automatic failover to alternates. Your assistant doesn’t lose its voice.
- Enterprise‑ready: Encryption on every hop, configurable retention, and data stored in your Leena hosting region.
Under the hood
Here’s the (simplified) flow when you speak to Leena Voice:
- You talk on the web or mobile app (Teams supported; phone lines coming soon).
- A specialized voice service handles the real‑time transcription and lets us know if you interrupt mid‑sentence (barge‑in).
- Our Voice Orchestrator (a fast, lightweight brain) gives you an immediate, natural acknowledgement, no awkward silence.
- The Core Orchestrator (the heavy lifter) plans the best way to fulfill your request: check knowledge, call tools, or hit APIs (e.g., Workday for PTO).
- As it works, it streams status to you in human language: “Looking up your balance… applying time off in Workday…”
- The final answer is converted to natural speech and played back. If you cut in, we handle continue/cancel gracefully.
Why it’s fast: We designed the system to stream everything, speech in, updates mid‑flight, speech out, while keeping the Core’s context lean to avoid LLM lag. You hear something useful as soon as you stop speaking.
What you can do with Leena AI Voice
- HR Transactions: Submit PTO, check balances, update personal info, retrieve policies.
- IT Service Desk: Reset passwords, request access, check ticket status, and basic troubleshooting.
- Ops & Admin: Room bookings, visitor passes, policy lookups, approvals.
Each workflow is actionable. Leena calls your systems, notifies you of progress, and confirms completion. The result: faster resolution, lower handle time, and happier employees.
Measurable value
- Lower latency → higher adoption: Immediate acks remove the awkward wait. People stick with what feels responsive.
- Completion over chit‑chat: Because Leena executes tools, more conversations end in done, not “let me transfer you.”
- Reduced load on agents: Routine tasks move to voice self‑service; human teams focus on edge cases.
- Better accessibility & convenience: Voice is faster than typing on the go (especially for mobile and frontline workers).
Security, privacy, and data handling with Leena AI Voice
- Encrypted, end‑to‑end: Audio and transcripts move over secure WebSockets (TLS) in both directions.
- Minimal vendor retention: The voice service can be configured not to store your audio beyond a short operational window; Leena maintains authoritative logs.
- Your region, your data: Leena stores audio/transcripts in the same region as your tenant. (Note: today’s voice vendor is US‑hosted; strict localization in some regions may require our upcoming in‑house voice stack.)
Channels & authentication
- Where it runs: Web and Mobile (today), Microsoft Teams (integrated). Phone numbers (PSTN) are planned for Q1.
- Who’s speaking (for phone support)
- Known corporate numbers (white‑collar): We send an SMS SSO link during the call, authenticate without hanging up.
- Shared or frontline devices (blue‑collar): Use customer‑approved combinations like last‑4 SSN, employee ID, or DOB. (We recommend secrets over widely known facts.)
Voices you’ll actually like
We use premium TTS (primarily: ElevenLabs) for natural rhythm and tone. For long or complex instructions, we add fine‑grained controls (pace, pauses, emphasis) so users actually absorb the message. Prefer a different persona? Choose a curated voice or deploy a custom voice per business unit or geography. Failover ensures the assistant keeps speaking even if a vendor blips.
Observability & billing: no black boxes
- Per‑call ledger: Who called, when, duration, sentiment, topics, and a full transcript with audio. Great for QA and compliance.
- Usage visibility: Minutes tracked at the tenant level, perfect for bundled-minute plans or per‑employee licensing.
- Customer controls: Turn transcript/audio access on or off per your policy.
What’s hard to pull off
The speech bits are impressive today, but they’re mostly solved. The real challenge is turning a live stream of words into the right enterprise action, while handling interruptions without losing state. That’s where Leena’s dual‑brain design shines:
- Voice Orchestrator keeps the conversation snappy and human.
- Core Orchestrator grounds the request in your systems, executes safely, and narrates progress.
This separation is what makes Leena Voice feel both immediate and reliable.
The takeaway
Leena Voice turns natural conversation into finished work. It’s fast enough to feel invisible, smart enough to handle real processes, and secure enough for the enterprise. If your teams are juggling tickets, tabs, and tools, give them something better: just say it, and it’s done.
