OpenAI launches GPT-Realtime-2.1-mini for low-latency voice agents

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

OpenAI has launched two new Realtime models, GPT-Realtime-2.1 and GPT-Realtime-2.1-mini, designed for low-latency voice and multimodal applications via their API. The GPT-Realtime-2.1-mini is a smaller, more cost-effective reasoning model for real-time voice interactions, maintaining previous pricing while adding enhanced reasoning and tool-use capabilities. OpenAI also announced a significant reduction in p95 latency by at least 25% across its Realtime voice models, attributed to improved caching mechanisms. AI

IMPACT Enhances real-time voice agent capabilities with improved latency and reasoning, potentially accelerating adoption in customer support and interactive applications.
