dograhai/dograh-api repository overview

⁠Dograh API

Backend service for Dograh AI⁠ — the open-source alternative to Vapi for building and deploying voice AI agents with telephony and WebRTC support.

Dograh lets you go from zero to a working voice bot in under 2 minutes, with a drag-and-drop workflow builder, bring-your-own LLM/TTS/STT, and first-class self-hosting.

• Source: https://github.com/dograh-hq/dograh⁠
• UI image: dograhai/dograh-ui⁠

⁠What's in this image

A FastAPI application that powers the Dograh platform:

• Voice agent runtime built on Pipecat (STT → LLM → TTS pipeline)
• Workflow engine for drag-and-drop voice agents
• Telephony integrations (Twilio, Vonage, Vobiz, Cloudonix, ...)
• WebRTC support for browser-based calls
• REST API consumed by the dograh-ui frontend
• Background task processing via ARQ/Redis

⁠Quick start

This image is designed to run as part of the full Dograh stack via Docker Compose (Postgres + Redis + MinIO + API + UI).

curl -o docker-compose.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dograh-hq/dograh/main/docker-compose.yaml
REGISTRY=dograhai ENABLE_TELEMETRY=true docker compose up --pull always

Then open http://localhost:3010⁠ to create your first AI voice assistant. No API keys required — Dograh auto-provisions defaults so you can start immediately, and you can swap in your own keys anytime.

For remote-server deployment with HTTPS and a TURN server, see the Docker Deployment Guide⁠.

⁠Tags

• latest — latest stable release
• X.Y.Z — specific versioned releases (see the changelog⁠)
• <commit-sha> — images built from a specific commit on main

⁠Upgrading

Pick a tag from the tags page⁠ and pin it in your docker-compose.yaml.

1. Edit docker-compose.yaml and set the same tag on both services:

   services:
     api:
       image: dograhai/dograh-api:1.25.0   # ← same tag
     ui:
       image: dograhai/dograh-ui:1.25.0   # ← same tag
   

   Copy

2. Pull the new images and restart the stack:

   docker compose pull
   docker compose up -d
   

   Copy

   Or in one step: docker compose up -d --pull always.

3. Verify both containers are healthy:

   docker compose ps
   

   Copy

To roll back, set both tags to the previous version and repeat the steps above. Postgres schema migrations run automatically on API start — review the changelog⁠ before jumping multiple major versions.

⁠Configuration

The API is configured entirely through environment variables. The most important ones:
