Setup requires a VM with at least 2 CPU cores and 4 GB RAM, a domain name, and a SIP trunk (Twilio or Telnyx). The installation script handles Docker setup and generates Docker Compose and environment files. Configuration covers domain, Let's Encrypt, SMTP, optional S3 for call recordings, and optional OpenAI/DeepGram API keys for AI features like transcription, summarization, and voice bots. After starting services, an admin account is created and the SIP trunk is configured to enable inbound and outbound calls. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What do I need to self-host Comcent Community Edition for VoIP calling? A virtual machine with at least two CPU cores and 4 GB of RAM, a domain name pointing to it, and a SIP trunk provider such as Twilio or Telnyx are required. SIP and RTP ports must be opened in the firewall, and an installation command sets up Docker along with the compose and environment files needed to run the platform. _daily.dev surfaces practical deployment guides for developers self-hosting communication infrastructure._ ### How do I enable AI transcription and voice bots in Comcent? AI features like transcription, summarization, and voice bots are enabled by adding OpenAI and Deep Gram API keys to the environment configuration file before starting the platform with Docker compose. Call recording storage can also be configured separately using S3 storage details in the same file. _Developers wiring AI features into self-hosted tools can track similar integration patterns on daily.dev._ ## Community discussion Top comments from developers on daily.dev. **@baz14** · 2 upvotes > It's very useful these days. > > Self-hosting of critical services is becoming mandatory due to vendor instability. ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [GitHub - comcent-io/comcent-ce: Comcent Community Edition — open-source contact center](https://daily.dev/posts/github---comcent-io-comcent-ce-comcent-community-edition-open-source-contact-center-mx4z1pygb) · ElixirStatus · 4 upvotes · 0 comments - [Building Your First Voice Agent The Sound of the Future: How to Build an AI Voice Agent](https://daily.dev/posts/building-your-first-voice-agent-the-sound-of-the-future-how-to-build-an-ai-voice-agent-dmfmzti5q) · The Miners · 2 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#open-source](https://daily.dev/tags/open-source), [#docker](https://daily.dev/tags/docker), [#self-hosting](https://daily.dev/tags/self-hosting) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/deploy-your-own-open-source-voice-infrastructure-comcent-community-edition-walkthrough-wegwtbnb9) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Deploy Your Own Open Source Voice Infrastructure | Comcent Community Edition Walkthrough","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/deploy-your-own-open-source-voice-infrastructure-comcent-community-edition-walkthrough-wegwtbnb9","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/deploy-your-own-open-source-voice-infrastructure-comcent-community-edition-walkthrough-wegwtbnb9"},"datePublished":"2026-07-10T17:28:15.387Z","dateModified":"2026-09-14T07:48:38.677Z","description":"A walkthrough for deploying Comcent Community Edition, a self-hosted open source voice communication platform.
