Espresso Labs

An integrated voice agent who uses work collaboration tools to help engineering managers assemble and maintain a list of their obligations. We won 2nd place at the a16z x ElevenLabs hackathon in London from 22-23 Feb 2025, and won a high-end Teenage Engineering OB-4 portable speaker each.

Code structure

• The frontend uses Next.js. To run it, cd frontend, then npm i, then npm run dev
• The backend uses Flask and is configured with docker. To run it, you'll first need to create a .env in the backend folder containing these environment variables. To start it, run cd backend then docker-compose up

The voice agent configuration and prompting we used has been lost to the sands and constraints of time.
