Enterprise Deployment
Run Talkr on your own infrastructure instead of the hosted platform — from a local Docker install to a production remote server with a custom domain.
Most Talkr users don't need this section — sign up or accept an invite on the hosted platform and you're done. This section is for enterprises that want to run Talkr on their own infrastructure instead. Access to the Talkr repository is provisioned per customer; talk to your Talkr contact first.
Talkr deploys with Docker. Everything runs as two containers (api and ui) plus Postgres, Redis, and MinIO, orchestrated with Docker Compose. Pick the deployment path that matches what you're trying to do:
| Path | Use it when | Guide |
|---|---|---|
| Local Docker | You want to try Talkr on your own machine. No public URL, no telephony. | Docker → Option 1 |
| Remote server | You want a real server reachable from the internet, with HTTPS out of the box (via a free sslip.io certificate — no domain required). | Docker → Option 2 |
| Custom domain | You already have a remote deployment and want your own domain (e.g. voice.yourcompany.com) instead of the sslip.io URL. | Custom Domain |
Browsers treat microphone access as a secure-context feature, so the app must be served over HTTPS — or accessed at localhost/127.0.0.1 over HTTP, which is also a secure context. Local Docker uses http://localhost:3010 and therefore does not need a certificate.
After you deploy
Once the platform is running, these guides cover keeping it running:
- Authentication — switch from the built-in local email/password provider to Stack Auth for social login.
- Scaling — run multiple FastAPI workers behind nginx for higher call throughput.
- Update — move an existing deployment to a newer Talkr version.
Where to start
- Kicking the tires? Start with local Docker — running in a few minutes, no server needed.
- Putting it in front of real callers? Use remote server deployment, then layer on a custom domain if you want one.
- Already running and need to upgrade? Go straight to Update.
- Expecting high call volume? Read Scaling once your base deployment is live.
