AssemblyAI launches Voice Agent API for simplified conversational AI

AssemblyAI has introduced a new Voice Agent API that simplifies the creation of conversational AI applications by integrating speech-to-text, LLM querying, and text-to-speech into a single WebSocket connection. This managed service offers features like turn detection, interruption handling, and tool calling, aiming for low latency and cost-effectiveness compared to integrating separate services. Alternatively, developers can opt for AssemblyAI's streaming speech-to-text API to build their own custom orchestration layer, providing more control over each component. AI
