What it is
Daily Bots is Daily.co's managed RTVI service that runs Pipecat pipelines on demand. Customers ship the pipeline definition; Daily handles the WebRTC transport, scaling, and observability. It pairs naturally with the open-source Pipecat framework when the buyer wants OSS portability with managed operations.
Watch out for: Locked to Daily.co transport; egress and compute pricing applies.
