Real-time voice AI APIs with 50 ms to first audio
Text-to-speech, speech-to-text, and live speech-to-speech translation reach roughly 50 ms to first audio, tuned for conversational agents rather than batch processing.
Clone a voice from a short sample for everyday use, move up to pro cloning for production quality, or generate a brand-new voice from a text description.
WebSocket streaming, Python and Rust SDKs, custom vocabulary, semantic VAD, and code-switching support make integration straightforward for agent builders.
Phonon is Gradium's openly available TTS model that runs on-device for offline or privacy-sensitive deployments.
One speech AI API for recognition, generation, and translation in 60+ languages
Soniox STT delivers high accuracy across 60+ languages, accents, numbers, names, and domain vocabulary, engineered for fast multi-speaker conversations and noisy environments.
Generate expressive speech in 60+ languages with audio tags, alphanumeric accuracy, seamless language switching, 200+ built-in voices, and instant voice cloning.
Translate speech in real time across roughly 3,600 language pairs, with low-latency output that starts before a sentence finishes and handles mid-sentence language switching.
Streaming models transcribe speech and start generating audio from the first few words, keeping interaction fast enough for live voice agents and captions.
Industry leader for high-fidelity speech synthesis and voice cloning, though less focused on raw streaming STT infrastructure.
