Deepgram
Description:
Deepgram is a unified Voice AI platform that offers speech-to-text, text-to-speech, and voice agent capabilities via APIs. It enables developers and enterprises to build real-time or batch audio applications—such as transcription, conversational agents, and voice synthesis—while offering high accuracy, low latency, and scalable infrastructure.

Unique Features:
- Speech-to-Text with advanced models — includes models like Nova-3, Enhanced, Base, and Flux (a conversational STT model optimized for turn-taking) for both streaming and pre-recorded audio.
- Text-to-Speech (Aura-2) — generates natural-sounding speech with low latency; billed per 1,000 characters.
- Voice Agent API (conversational AI) — a unified API that handles transcription, LLM orchestration, and text-to-speech in a single flow.
- Audio Intelligence (Analysis APIs) — features like summarization, topic detection, intent recognition, sentiment analysis over audio/text input.
- Support for multiple deployment modes — cloud, on-premises, or VPC/virtual private environments to meet compliance or data residency needs.
- Model customization & keyterm prompting — users can adapt models via vocabulary prompts and domain tuning without full retraining.
