voice-agents

Amazon has released Stream's Vision Agents, an open-source Python framework for building real-time voice AI agents that integrates with Amazon Nova 2 Sonic through Bedrock. The system delivers end-to-end latency under 500 milliseconds using Stream's global edge network with sub-30ms audio latency and typically sub-500ms join times.

Mistral AI released Voxtral-4B-TTS-2603, an open-weights text-to-speech model designed for production voice agents. The 4B-parameter model supports 9 languages, 20 preset voices, achieves 70ms latency at concurrency 1 on a single NVIDIA H200, and requires only 16GB GPU memory.
