About

We built Rufen because phones still ring — and businesses still miss them.

Rufen is a multi-tenant voice AI platform built from Leipzig. BYOK from day one. EU-default.

Why we built Rufen

The voice AI tools we tried in 2025 had three problems: opaque pricing with model markup baked into every minute, prompts that lived in black-box platforms with no audit trail, and a hard ceiling on which models you could use.

We wanted the opposite. Bring your own keys. Pay providers directly. Version every prompt. Trace every call. Run any LLM you want — or run our local stack for sub-second latency.

Rufen is in private beta with our first design partners. If that sounds like the platform you've been looking for, our waitlist is open.

Our mission

Make every business reachable, in any language, around the clock — without locking you into our model picks.

Rufen is in private beta. The team is small today and the work is hands-on. We're hiring — drop us a line if you want to build the EU's voice AI platform.
