+A complete starter project for building voice AI apps with [LiveKit Agents for Python](https://github.com/livekit/agents).
 
-A simple voice AI assistant built with [LiveKit Agents for Python](https://github.com/livekit/agents).
+The starter project includes:
+
+- A simple voice AI assistant based on the [Voice AI quickstart](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/start/voice-ai/)
+- Voice AI pipeline based on [OpenAI](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/integrations/llm/openai/), [Cartesia](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/integrations/tts/cartesia/), and [Deepgram](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/integrations/llm/deepgram/)
+  - Easily integrate your preferred [LLM](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/integrations/llm/), [STT](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/integrations/stt/), and [TTS](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/integrations/tts/) instead, or swap to a realtime model like the [OpenAI Realtime API](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/integrations/realtime/openai)
+- Eval suite based on the LiveKit Agents [testing & evaluation framework](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/testing/)
+- [LiveKit Turn Detector](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/build/turns/turn-detector/) for contextually-aware speaker detection, with multilingual support
+- [LiveKit Cloud enhanced noise cancellation](https://docs.livekit.io/home/cloud/noise-cancellation/)
+- Integrated [metrics and logging](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/build/metrics/)
+
+This starter app is compatible with [SIP-based telephony](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/start/telephony/) or any [custom web/mobile frontend](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/start/frontend/).

+You can load the LiveKit environment automatically using the [LiveKit CLI](https://docs.livekit.io/home/cli/cli-setup):
 
 ```bash
 lk app env -w .env
 ```
 
-Run the agent:
+## Run the agent
+
+Run this command to speak to your agent directly in your terminal:
+
+```console
+uv run python src/agent.py console
+```
+
+To run the agent for use with a frontend or telephony, use the `dev` command:
 
 ```console
 uv run python src/agent.py dev
 ```
 
-This agent requires a frontend application to communicate with. Use a [starter app](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/start/frontend/#starter-apps), our hosted [Sandbox](https://cloud.livekit.io/projects/p_/sandbox) frontends, or the [LiveKit Agents Playground](https://agents-playground.livekit.io/).
+In production, use the `start` command:
+
+```console
+uv run python src/agent.py start
+```
+
+## Web and mobile frontends
+
+To use a prebuilt frontend or build your own, see the [agents frontend guide](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/start/frontend/).
+
+## Telephony
+
+To add a phone number, see the [agents telephony guide](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/start/telephony/).
+
+## Tests and evals
+
+This project includes a complete suite of evals, based on the LiveKit Agents [testing & evaluation framework](https://docs.livekit.io/agents/testing/). To run them, use `pytest`.
+
+```console
+uv run pytest evals
