About
Higgs Realtime is a production-quality, real-time speech-to-speech model and API built for natural, continuous conversation. It is an end-to-end, instruction-tuned, audio-native model that can understand audio, text, or both and generate high-quality responses, while also functioning as a text LLM when given text alone. Designed for live voice agents, it follows conversations, handles interruptions, adapts when requests change mid-sentence, and carries multi-step workflows through to completion. The model is trained specifically for voice-agent reflexes such as natural turn-taking, conversational cadence, tone adaptation, spoken tool preambles, multi-turn state tracking, and robust instruction following through changing requests. Semantic turn detection helps distinguish a completed turn from a pause, while multilingual and code-switched understanding supports more than 100 languages without per-language setup.

About
Hume AI has introduced Octave (Omni-capable Text and Voice Engine), a groundbreaking text-to-speech system that leverages large language model technology to understand and interpret the context of words, enabling it to generate speech with appropriate emotions, rhythm, and cadence, unlike traditional TTS models that merely read text, Octave acts akin to a human actor, delivering lines with nuanced expression based on the content. Users can create diverse AI voices by providing descriptive prompts, such as "a sarcastic medieval peasant," allowing for tailored voice generation that aligns with specific character traits or scenarios. Additionally, Octave offers the flexibility to modify the emotional delivery and speaking style through natural language instructions, enabling commands like "sound more enthusiastic" or "whisper fearfully" to fine-tune the output.
