[Suggestion] Langflow visual voice agent builder with Deepgram STT and TTS (Python) #334

Description

@deepgram-robot

What to build

A working example that creates custom Langflow components for Deepgram STT and TTS, enabling developers to visually build voice agent pipelines in Langflow's drag-and-drop interface — connecting microphone input → Deepgram transcription → LLM processing → Deepgram speech synthesis without writing pipeline code.

Why this matters

Low-code/visual AI builders like Langflow are increasingly popular with teams that want to prototype voice agents without building WebSocket infrastructure from scratch. Langflow has strong LLM integration but no built-in speech capabilities. Deepgram custom components for Langflow would let developers drag-and-drop voice into any Langflow pipeline, dramatically reducing time-to-prototype for voice agent experiments. This also serves teams where the voice agent designer is a product manager or conversation designer rather than a backend engineer.

Suggested scope

  • Language: Python
  • Deepgram APIs: Pre-recorded STT, Streaming STT, TTS
  • Framework: Langflow (custom components)
  • Components:
    • DeepgramSTT Langflow component: accepts audio input, returns transcript
    • DeepgramTTS Langflow component: accepts text, returns audio
    • DeepgramStreamingSTT component: real-time microphone streaming
    • Example flow JSON: voice-in → STT → OpenAI/Claude → TTS → voice-out
    • README with screenshots of the visual flow and setup instructions
  • Complexity: Medium — custom Langflow component classes + example flow export

Acceptance criteria

  • Runnable with minimal setup (clone, add API key, install Langflow, import flow)
  • README explains the pattern clearly with screenshots
  • Uses current SDK version
  • Includes at least 2 custom Langflow components (STT and TTS)
  • Includes an exportable flow JSON that can be imported into any Langflow instance
  • Demonstrates a complete voice-in → voice-out pipeline in the visual builder
