    The Six Families of AI Voice Agents: How to Choose an Archetype Before You Compare Vendors

    Most AI-voice-agent shortlists fail before the first demo because the vendors on them belong to different families. This essay names the six archetypes: pipeline constructors, wrapper constructors, no-code builders, speech-model vendors, full-stack communications platforms, and scripted IVR. It shows how to pick your family first, then let the head-to-heads rank the vendors inside it.

This four-way decision guide maps what each system owns, compares them on profile unification, event collection, SQL, activation and consent, and shows when Devotel Orbit's native CDP collapses three of the four.

Honest when-each-incumbent-wins guidance and a decision table that routes into four per-vendor head-to-head pages.
