Cartesia x AI Tinkerers Singapore
The fastest voice AI on the planet, in a room with the people building with it.
Karan & Deborah from Cartesia are flying in. 100 seats. Thursday night near City Hall. Food's on us.
If you've shipped anything with voice — agents, avatars, call flows, weird experiments — this is the room.

Why this one matters
Voice AI went from "cool demo" to "production stack" in about 18 months. The teams building it well in Singapore are scattered — across startups, enterprise teams, solo builders hacking on weekends. They rarely end up in the same room.
This is that room.
Cartesia's team is shipping at the frontier of real-time voice. We're bringing them here because the people building with it deserve direct access — not a livestream, not a recap thread.

About AI Tinkerers SG
AIT Singapore is part of the global AI Tinkerers network — a community for engineers and builders working hands-on with AI. Not a meetup for thought leaders or AI-curious spectators. It's for people shipping things.
We started with 30 people in a borrowed space. Now we run regular meetups, workshops, and the occasional chaotic hackathon. The through-line is the same: builders talking to builders, no gatekeeping, no pitch decks.
About Cartesia
Cartesia builds the fastest real-time voice AI on the market. Their Sonic model ships text-to-speech at sub-100ms latency — the kind of speed that makes voice agents feel like actual conversation instead of walkie-talkies.
Founded by the Stanford team behind state-space models (the architecture quietly challenging transformers for real-time workloads), they now power voice for thousands of companies — from customer support to gaming to healthcare.
