The wait is finally over, and we're thrilled to present Aura — the first text-to-speech model built for responsive, conversational AI agents and apps. 🗣️ Read the full announcement: https://lnkd.in/g4ra5vMq Over the last year, we've heard our customers' heartache about the current crop of text-to-speech products, citing roadblocks related to speed, cost, reliability, and conversational quality. “Deepgram and Groq share the belief that speed and efficiency are the missing ingredients in unlocking natural AI for daily use by everyone, as evidenced by the recent viral reception to ultra-fast LLMs when made available for the first time. Their voice AI models are prime examples of what can be achieved with the Groq API.” –Jonathan Ross, CEO & Founder of Groq That's where Aura comes in. Designed to handle real-time conversations at scale, developers can create realistic AI agents to support seamless interactions across various cases, from voice ordering systems to customer support. Aura checks all of the boxes: ✅ Lightning-fast speed with less than 250 ms latency ✅ High-quality voices with natural-sounding tone, rhythm, and emotion ✅ Cost-efficient for high-throughput applications Check out our open-source interactive demo: https://lnkd.in/gMJTDWE8 We're eager to see how Aura will fuel the next wave of AI innovation, and can't wait to see what you build!

We’re thrilled to partner with Daily to be a default speech-to-text engine for Daily Bots, the open-source cloud for ultra-low latency voice and video agents. 🚀
Today we’re launching Daily Bots, the ultra low latency Open Source cloud for voice, vision, and video AI. Build voice and video AI bots, with any LLM, at conversational latencies as low as 500ms. Developers can: ✳️ build with Open Source SDKs ✳️ mix and match the best Generative AI models for specific use cases ✳️ run at scale on Daily’s real-time global infrastructure We've partnered with Anthropic Cartesia Deepgram Together AI for this launch. Our goal is to combine the best tools, best developer ergonomics, and best infrastructure for real-time AI into a single platform. Daily Bots is the culmination of the last 18 months of work we've done with customers and partners. The two fastest growing Open Source real-time AI projects came out of this work: Pipecat and RTVI. *️⃣ Daily Bots apps are built using the RTVI Open Source SDKs for the Web, iOS, and Android. Your Daily Bots code will run anywhere that supports the RTVI standard. (Or you can run your own infrastructure.) *️⃣ Your Daily Bots can also answer the phone. (You can buy a phone number from us with a single curl command.) *️⃣ Bring your own API Keys and use any inference provider that supports OpenAI-compatible APIs. Or run your own models and connect your bots to your infrastructure. For a highly non-serious take on the kinds of things we’ve been creating for ourselves, as we’ve worked on Daily Bots, check out a fun demo video 👇 and more links in thread. We'd love to hear what multi-modal, real-time AI directions are most interesting to you, and excited to support developers building! #conversationalAI #voicetovoice #ai #claude #llama #generativeai
