Hippocratic AI ships Agentic Orchestrators for multi-agent clinical outcomes
Hippocratic AI launched Agentic Orchestrators that coordinate teams of conversational voice agents around outcomes such as readmission reduction, Star Ratings/HEDIS, chronic care, and trial enrolment.
Frames healthcare voice AI as supervised multi-agent programmes tied to population metrics, not one-off task bots for scheduling alone.

LiveKit expressive mode: one `expressive` flag, provider-specific TTS markup
LiveKit announced a single `expressive` flag on AgentSession that injects provider-specific TTS markup so agents can match emotional register, working with Fish Audio, Inworld, Cartesia, and SpaceXAI Inference TTS at launch.
Emotion tags stop being a per-vendor prompt hack on those four TTS backends and become a flag on the agent runtime.
1/ Today we're launching Expressive mode in LiveKit Agents. Most voice agents deliver every sentence in that same, upbeat register we all know and hate (including bad news). Expressive mode makes your agent sound like it registers what the caller is actually feeling.
