ClueCon's 20th Celebration
Chicago · Aug 9–12, 2027
20+ years of FreeSWITCH
Welcome to Cluecon

Twenty years of real-time communications. One new era.

ClueCon was founded by the creators of FreeSWITCH, the open-source engine behind a generation of phone systems, contact centers, and communications platforms. For two decades, it has been where the people who build real-time voice come to trade hard-won lessons.

Today, voice is being rebuilt around AI, and this community has spent over twenty years solving exactly the problems that AI voice now faces: latency, reliability, scale, and the messy reality of SIP, PSTN, and WebRTC.

ClueCon 2027 is where developers take Voice AI out of the demo and into production.
