Automating Phone Calls with KNIME and Open Source Tools

Hello KNIME Community,

I hope you’re all doing well !

I’m currently working on an ambitious project and would greatly appreciate your help, guidance, or suggestions. The goal is to automate a solution capable of making phone calls and interacting with the person on the other end.

I know there are paid tools available that offer this functionality, but I’m curious to know if it’s possible to achieve something similar using open-source libraries, Python scripts, AI models, and, ideally, KNIME as the central workflow manager.

I understand that this is a highly complex task, especially since I am neither a developer nor an AI expert. However, I’m eager to learn and explore what’s feasible in this domain.

If anyone has experience with similar projects, ideas on how to start, or suggestions for tools and approaches, your input would be invaluable. Whether it’s about text-to-speech, speech recognition, or integrating KNIME with external systems, I’m open to all insights!

Thank you so much in advance for your time and support.
