Mistral AI 5 months ago

Mistral released Voxtral Transcribe 2, a pair of speech-to-text models including Voxtral Mini for batch processing and Voxtral Realtime for live applications, with the latter available as open-weights software. Voxtral Mini achieves 4% word error rate at $0.003 per minute, outperforming competitors like GPT-4o mini and Gemini 2.5 Flash while processing audio 3x faster than ElevenLabs' Scribe v2 at one-fifth the cost. The models support 13 languages with speaker diarization, context biasing, and configurable latency down to sub-200 milliseconds, enabling applications from live subtitling to voice agents and contact center automation.

Together AI 5 months ago

Rime Arcana V3 Turbo and V3 text-to-speech models are now available on Together AI for multilingual voice applications with code-switching capabilities. V3 Turbo achieves approximately 120 milliseconds time-to-first-audio for English-Spanish switching, while V3 extends support to 11 languages at roughly 160 milliseconds latency. Voice agents can now handle mid-sentence language switching with consistent prosody and cadence, reducing the need to route between separate language-specific models.
