About
Amazon Nova Sonic is a state-of-the-art speech-to-speech model that delivers real-time, human-like voice conversations with industry-leading price performance. It unifies speech understanding and generation into a single model, enabling developers to create natural, expressive conversational AI experiences with low latency. Nova Sonic adapts its responses based on the prosody of input speech, such as pace and timbre, resulting in more natural dialogue. It supports function calling and agentic workflows to interact with external services and APIs, including knowledge grounding with enterprise data using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). It provides robust speech understanding for American and British English across various speaking styles and acoustic conditions, with additional languages coming soon. Nova Sonic handles user interruptions gracefully without dropping conversational context and is robust to background noise.

About
Velma is a voice-native AI model developed by Modulate as part of a broader voice intelligence platform, designed to understand conversations directly from audio rather than relying on text transcripts. Unlike traditional systems that convert speech into text and analyze it with language models, Velma uses an Ensemble Listening Model (ELM), a specialized architecture that processes multiple dimensions of voice simultaneously, including tone, emotion, pacing, intent, and behavioral signals. This allows it to capture the full meaning of a conversation, not just the words spoken, recognizing nuances such as stress, deception, sarcasm, or escalation in real time. It operates by combining hundreds of specialized detectors, each focused on specific aspects of speech like emotional state, inappropriate conduct, or synthetic voice indicators, and then fusing those signals into higher-level insights about what is happening in a conversation.
