Build OpenAI Agents SDK Multilingual DPI Voice Agent with Cartesia TTS

Non-English speaking citizens face accessibility barriers when navigating digital public services like Aadhaar and PM-Kisan portal updates. Build an interactive voice assistance agent using the OpenAI Agents SDK and Cartesia streaming TTS to provide low-latency audio support with under 500ms response latency.

Delivery guide

How work is evaluated

Evaluation

Evaluates response accuracy and audio response generation latency.

Datasets

Challenge datasets

Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.

Evaluation rubric

How submissions are scored

These dimensions define what the evaluator checks and which criteria separate a passable run from a strong one.

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

latency_check

Verifies latency is below 500ms threshold

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

latency_ms

End-to-end response generation latency in milliseconds • target: 450 • range: 0-2000

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Learning goals

What you should walk away with

  • Implement OpenAI Agents SDK runner loops with streaming audio integration

  • Connect Cartesia low-latency TTS for ultra-fast text-to-speech rendering in Hindi and Tamil

  • Build dynamic schema tools to query citizen service status endpoints

  • Ensure voice latency stays under 500ms end-to-end
