Developers and product teams who need advanced, real-time voice and speech generation capabilities to build interactive, expressive conversational agents and multilingual audio applications
About Gemini 2.5 Flash Native Audio
Google has released updated Gemini audio models that significantly expand the platform’s capabilities for natural, expressive voice interactions and real-time conversational AI with the introduction of Gemini 2.5 Flash Native Audio and improved text-to-speech technology. The updated native audio model powers live voice agents that can handle complex workflows, follow detailed user instructions more reliably, and maintain smoother multi-turn conversations by better recalling context from previous turns. It is now available across Google AI Studio,Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform, Gemini Live, and Search Live, enabling developers and products to build interactive voice experiences such as intelligent assistants and enterprise voice agents. In addition to the real-time voice improvements, Google enhanced the underlying Text-to-Speech (TTS) models in the Gemini 2.5 family to offer greater expressivity, tone control, pacing adjustments, and multilingual support.

OpenAI Realtime API
The OpenAI Realtime API is a newly introduced API, announced in 2024, that allows developers to create applications that facilitate real-time, low-latency interactions, such as speech-to-speech conversations. This API is designed for use cases like customer support agents, AI voice assistants, and language learning apps. Unlike previous implementations that required multiple models for speech recognition and text-to-speech conversion, the Realtime API handles these processes seamlessly in one call, enabling applications to handle voice interactions much faster and with more natural flow.

MAI-Transcribe-1.5
MAI-Transcribe-1.5 is Microsoft AI’s production-ready speech-to-text model for turning noisy audio into highly accurate, domain-aware transcripts across 43 languages. It delivers consistent, high-accuracy transcription across languages, accents, speaking styles, and challenging audio conditions, with automatic language detection included. The model is designed for real-world audio where speech often comes through conference rooms, phone lines, busy streets, low-quality recordings, background noise, and overlapping speakers. MAI-Transcribe-1.5 adapts transcription to domain-specific terminology, making it ready for captions, call analysis, accessibility, meeting transcription, doctor’s notes, pharma customer calls, content workflows, and other enterprise speech use cases out of the box. It uses contextual biasing to improve recognition of specialized vocabulary, names, industry language, and terms that generic transcription systems may miss.

MAI-Transcribe-2
MAI-Transcribe-2 is Microsoft AI’s most capable transcription model yet, designed to deliver fast, accurate speech recognition across a broad range of real-world audio. It supports speaker diarization to distinguish speakers and attribute words to the right person, along with word-level timestamps for precise alignment, search, navigation, and editing. Keyword biasing helps recognize domain-specific terminology, abbreviations, names, and other terms that can be difficult to distinguish from context alone. Developers can choose between configurable transcription styles: a verbatim setting that preserves filler words and false starts for compliance and analysis, or a clean setting that removes fillers for more readable captions, notes, and published transcripts. The model supports code-switching for conversations that naturally move between languages, including blended language pairs such as Hinglish and Spanglish, and can automatically identify the language being spoken.
