Hi, I'm Mahimai. I'm an AI engineer based in Ontario, Canada, focused on real-time voice agents and the developer tooling around them. I've spent 7+ years shipping production AI systems, including 10+ voice agents and RAG pipelines, and I spend my free time writing blogs and publishing open source softwares.

What I build and maintain

  • voice-ai: a learning path for engineers who want to ship their first voice agent
  • OpenRTC (openrtc-python): a multi-agent coordination layer for LiveKit
  • LocalLens: offline semantic file search
  • VoiceGateway: And self hostable voice utility
  • envoic: a CLI for cleaning dev artifacts across Python and JS projects
  • Livekit Plugins: SambaNova, Cerebras, Smallest AI

What I write and run

I publish #100DaysOfLiveKit on LinkedIn and X, run the Voice AI Community and Document AI Community, and authored the Voice Agents Handbook. I also write regularly on Medium about the voice AI stack.

Why your sponsorship matters

Voice AI is genuinely hard to get started with. The stack spans SIP, telephony, STT, LLM, TTS, agents, and observability, and most beginners drop off long before they ship anything. Your sponsorship funds the time I spend keeping that path clear:

  • Continued maintenance of the libraries above, including issues, releases, and docs
  • Free tutorials and deep dives on the voice AI stack
  • Contributions back to LiveKit and adjacent open source projects
  • Moderation and content for the Voice AI and Document AI Communities

If my work has saved you time or helped you ship a voice agent, sponsoring is the most direct way to keep it going. Thank you.

@mahimairaja

Reaching 5 monthly sponsors will fund a dedicated day every week for maintaining voicegateway, voice-ai, OpenRTC, LocalLens, and envoic. That means faster issue triage, more frequent releases, and a steady stream of free tutorials for engineers shipping their first voice agent.
