To integrate Conversational AI into your Flutter app and ensure personalization for each customer/session, you can follow these steps:

  1. Dynamic Conversation Settings: Use the override feature to implement dynamic conversation settings for each client. This allows you to customize greetings, adjust responses based on client-specific data, and modify voice settings per conversation.

  2. Tracking Minutes: While our platform doesn't directly support billing based on session duration, you can implement a mechanism to track the minutes used by each customer. This can be achieved through the API, where you can monitor the duration of each session and manage the purchase of additional minutes.

  3. Integration with Third-Party Services: Consider using external function calls to provide your agent with real-time information and the ability to take action in third-party apps. This can help in managing session data and billing.

  4. Privacy and Compliance: Ensure that your app clearly discloses to users that they are interacting with AI, especially in personalized settings. This is important for privacy compliance and user transparency.

For more detailed guidance, you may want to review the documentation on integrating Conversational AI and managing session data.

To integrate Conversational AI into your Flutter app and track minutes through an API, you can follow these steps:

  1. API Integration for Tracking Minutes:

    • Use the ElevenLabs API to manage session durations. You can create a backend service that tracks the start and end times of each session.
    • Calculate the duration of each session and store this information in your database.
    • Implement logic to deduct minutes from the user's account based on the session duration and handle purchasing additional minutes if needed.
  2. Using ElevenLabs UI in Your App:

    • While there isn't a direct UI component from ElevenLabs to embed in your app, you can use the SDKs provided by ElevenLabs to build a custom interface.
    • Use the React SDK or Python SDK as a reference to understand how to interact with the Conversational AI API.
    • Implement the UI in Flutter to handle user interactions, microphone access, and display conversation status.
  3. Personalization for Each Customer/Session:

    • Use the override feature to customize conversation settings for each client. This allows you to adjust responses, greetings, and voice settings based on client-specific data.
    • Store user preferences and session data in your backend to ensure each session is personalized.

By following these steps, you can effectively integrate and manage Conversational AI in your Flutter app, ensuring a personalized experience for each user while tracking session durations.

To track minutes through an API, you can implement a system that logs the start and end times of each session. Here's a basic example of how you might achieve this:

  1. Start Session: When a session begins, record the start time.
  2. End Session: When the session ends, record the end time.
  3. Calculate Duration: Subtract the start time from the end time to get the session duration in minutes.
  4. Store Data: Save this information in your database to keep track of usage.

Here's a simple example in JavaScript:

let sessionStartTime;
let sessionEndTime;

// Function to start the session
function startSession() {
    sessionStartTime = new Date();
    console.log("Session started at:", sessionStartTime);
}

// Function to end the session
function endSession() {
    sessionEndTime = new Date();
    console.log("Session ended at:", sessionEndTime);
    calculateSessionDuration();
}

// Function to calculate session duration
function calculateSessionDuration() {
    const duration = (sessionEndTime - sessionStartTime) / 60000; // Convert milliseconds to minutes
    console.log("Session duration in minutes:", duration);
    // Store the duration in your database
}

For integrating the UI in your Flutter app, you can use a WebView to display the ElevenLabs UI if it's available as a web component. Alternatively, you can build a custom UI in Flutter and use the ElevenLabs API to handle the backend logic.

AI-generated Answer for mateuscdantas

To track minute usage when using a WebView to display the ElevenLabs UI, you would need to implement a system on your backend that monitors API calls related to the text-to-speech service. Here's a general approach:

  1. API Monitoring: Set up your backend to log each API request made to ElevenLabs. This can include details like the duration of the audio generated, which can be used to calculate the minutes used.

  2. Session Management: Assign a unique session ID to each user session. This ID can be used to track and associate API usage with specific users.

  3. Usage Calculation: For each API call, calculate the duration of the audio generated and add it to the user's total usage. This can be done by parsing the response from the API, which should include the duration of the generated audio.

  4. Database Logging: Store the usage data in a database, associating it with the user's account. This allows you to keep a running total of minutes used and manage any additional purchases of minutes.

  5. User Interface: Update the user interface to display the remaining minutes to the user. This can be done by fetching the usage data from your backend and displaying it in the app.

By implementing these steps, you can effectively track and manage minute usage for each user session while using the ElevenLabs UI in a WebView.

To track minute usage through an API, you can set up a backend service that communicates with the ElevenLabs API to monitor and log the duration of each session. Here's a basic outline of how you might implement this in Go for the backend and Flutter for the WebView.

Go Backend Sample

  1. Set Up Your Go Environment: Ensure you have Go installed and set up a new project.

  2. Create a Simple Server: Use the net/http package to create a server that handles requests for starting and ending sessions.

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "net/http"
    "time"
)

var sessionStart time.Time

func startSession(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    sessionStart = time.Now()
    fmt.Fprintf(w, "Session started at %v", sessionStart)
}

func endSession(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    sessionEnd := time.Now()
    duration := sessionEnd.Sub(sessionStart)
    fmt.Fprintf(w, "Session ended. Duration: %v", duration)
    // Here, you would log the duration to a database or another storage solution
}

func main() {
    http.HandleFunc("/start", startSession)
    http.HandleFunc("/end", endSession)
    http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)
}

Flutter WebView Implementation

  1. Add WebView Package: Add the webview_flutter package to your pubspec.yaml.
dependencies:
  flutter:
    sdk: flutter
  webview_flutter: ^2.0.10
  1. Implement WebView in Flutter: Use the WebView widget to display the ElevenLabs UI.
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:webview_flutter/webview_flutter.dart';

void main() => runApp(MyApp());

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: WebViewExample(),
    );
  }
}

class WebViewExample extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  WebViewExampleState createState() => WebViewExampleState();
}

class WebViewExampleState extends State<WebViewExample> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(title: Text("ElevenLabs WebView")),
      body: WebView(
        initialUrl: 'https://your-elevenlabs-url.com',
        javascriptMode: JavascriptMode.unrestricted,
      ),
    );
  }
}

Tracking Minutes

To track minutes, you can send requests to your Go backend when a session starts and ends. The backend can calculate the duration and store it in a database. You can then retrieve this data to manage user billing and usage.

This setup allows you to integrate ElevenLabs' UI in your Flutter app while keeping track of usage through a backend service.

To integrate ElevenLabs Conversational AI into your Flutter app and track minute usage, you can follow these steps:

API Tracking in Go

To track minutes through an API, you can create an endpoint in your Go backend that logs the duration of each session. Here's a simple example:

package main

import (
    "net/http"
    "time"
    "log"
    "encoding/json"
)

type Session struct {
    UserID    string `json:"user_id"`
    StartTime time.Time `json:"start_time"`
    EndTime   time.Time `json:"end_time"`
}

func trackSession(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    var session Session
    err := json.NewDecoder(r.Body).Decode(&session)
    if err != nil {
        http.Error(w, err.Error(), http.StatusBadRequest)
        return
    }

    duration := session.EndTime.Sub(session.StartTime).Minutes()
    log.Printf("User %s used %f minutes", session.UserID, duration)

    w.WriteHeader(http.StatusOK)
}

func main() {
    http.HandleFunc("/track", trackSession)
    log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil))
}

Flutter WebView Implementation

To use a WebView in Flutter to display the ElevenLabs UI, you can use the webview_flutter package. Here's a basic setup:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:webview_flutter/webview_flutter.dart';

void main() => runApp(MyApp());

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: WebViewExample(),
    );
  }
}

class WebViewExample extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  WebViewExampleState createState() => WebViewExampleState();
}

class WebViewExampleState extends State<WebViewExample> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(title: Text("ElevenLabs UI")),
      body: WebView(
        initialUrl: 'https://your-elevenlabs-url.com',
        javascriptMode: JavascriptMode.unrestricted,
      ),
    );
  }
}

Handling Authentication

If your agent requires authentication, you will need to handle this in your Flutter app. You can pass authentication tokens or credentials through the WebView's URL or headers. Ensure that your backend securely manages these tokens and that they are not exposed in the frontend.

For example, you can modify the WebView to include headers:

WebView(
  initialUrl: 'https://your-elevenlabs-url.com',
  javascriptMode: JavascriptMode.unrestricted,
  onWebViewCreated: (WebViewController webViewController) {
    webViewController.loadUrl(
      'https://your-elevenlabs-url.com',
      headers: <String, String>{
        'Authorization': 'Bearer your_token',
      },
    );
  },
)

Make sure to replace 'your_token' with the actual token you use for authentication. Always ensure that sensitive information is handled securely.

To handle authentication for an agent with authentication activated, you need to generate a signed URL on your server. This signed URL provides secure, temporary access to the conversational API without exposing your API key to the client. Below is an example of how to set this up:


Server-Side Implementation (Go Example)

Here’s how you can create an endpoint in Go to generate the signed URL:

package main

import (
	"encoding/json"
	"fmt"
	"log"
	"net/http"
	"os"
)

type SignedURLResponse struct {
	SignedURL string `json:"signed_url"`
}

func getSignedURLHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	agentID := os.Getenv("AGENT_ID")
	apiKey := os.Getenv("XI_API_KEY")

	if agentID == "" || apiKey == "" {
		http.Error(w, "Missing AGENT_ID or XI_API_KEY environment variables", http.StatusInternalServerError)
		return
	}

	url := fmt.Sprintf("https://api.elevenlabs.io/v1/convai/conversation/get_signed_url?agent_id=%s", agentID)
	req, err := http.NewRequest("GET", url, nil)
	if err != nil {
		http.Error(w, "Failed to create request", http.StatusInternalServerError)
		return
	}

	req.Header.Set("xi-api-key", apiKey)

	client := &http.Client{}
	resp, err := client.Do(req)
	if err != nil || resp.StatusCode != http.StatusOK {
		http.Error(w, "Failed to get signed URL", http.StatusInternalServerError)
		return
	}
	defer resp.Body.Close()

	var signedURLResponse SignedURLResponse
	if err := json.NewDecoder(resp.Body).Decode(&signedURLResponse); err != nil {
		http.Error(w, "Failed to parse response", http.StatusInternalServerError)
		return
	}

	w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "application/json")
	json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(signedURLResponse)
}

func main() {
	http.HandleFunc("/api/signed-url", getSignedURLHandler)
	port := "3000"
	log.Printf("Server running on port %s", port)
	log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":"+port, nil))
}

Steps to Use This Endpoint

  1. Deploy this server code and ensure the AGENT_ID and XI_API_KEY are set as environment variables.
  2. The client (Flutter app) will call this /api/signed-url endpoint to retrieve the signed URL.

Flutter WebView Implementation

To integrate the ElevenLabs UI in your Flutter app using a WebView:

  1. Add the webview_flutter package to your pubspec.yaml:

    dependencies:
      webview_flutter: ^4.0.0
    
  2. Use the WebView widget to load the ElevenLabs UI:

    import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
    import 'package:webview_flutter/webview_flutter.dart';
    import 'dart:convert';
    import 'package:http/http.dart' as http;
    
    class ElevenLabsWebView extends StatefulWidget {
      @override
      _ElevenLabsWebViewState createState() => _ElevenLabsWebViewState();
    }
    
    class _ElevenLabsWebViewState extends State<ElevenLabsWebView> {
      late WebViewController _controller;
      String? signedUrl;
    
      @override
      void initState() {
        super.initState();
        fetchSignedUrl();
      }
    
      Future<void> fetchSignedUrl() async {
        final response = await http.get(Uri.parse('http://your-server.com/api/signed-url'));
        if (response.statusCode == 200) {
          final data = json.decode(response.body);
          setState(() {
            signedUrl = data['signed_url'];
          });
        } else {
          throw Exception('Failed to load signed URL');
        }
      }
    
      @override
      Widget build(BuildContext context) {
        return Scaffold(
          appBar: AppBar(
            title: Text('ElevenLabs Conversational AI'),
          ),
          body: signedUrl == null
              ? Center(child: CircularProgressIndicator())
              : WebView(
                  initialUrl: signedUrl,
                  javascriptMode: JavascriptMode.unrestricted,
                  onWebViewCreated: (WebViewController webViewController) {
                    _controller = webViewController;
                  },
                ),
        );
      }
    }
    

Tracking Minute Usage

To track minute usage, you can use the ElevenLabs API to monitor usage analytics
