Voice AI platform for building, testing, and deploying voice agents.

Vapi widens its transcriber menu as Soniox hits GA and Deepgram Flux goes multilingual

voice-aispeech-to-texttranscriptionmultilingualreal-timeprovider-integrations
Current state
Vapi is a platform for building voice AI agents. The substantive recent shipping is concentrated in its speech-to-text layer: the Soniox transcriber reached general availability for all customers, and Deepgram's Flux model gained multilingual support — both configurable per assistant. Most other weekly changelog entries in this window are empty placeholders with no described changes.
Where it's heading
The visible direction is widening transcriber choice and quality for real-time, multilingual voice agents. Within a short span Vapi promoted one new STT provider to GA (Soniox) and extended multilingual coverage on another (Deepgram Flux), both emphasizing low latency and turn-taking — the parts of a voice agent users feel most. The thin, content-free weekly entries make the rest of the roadmap hard to read from the changelog alone.
Prediction
Expect continued expansion of the transcriber/provider menu and multilingual coverage; beyond the speech-to-text layer the changelog is too sparse to call a confident next move.
