OpenAI Realtime API
The OpenAI Realtime API is a newly introduced API, announced in 2024, that allows developers to create applications that facilitate real-time, low-latency interactions, such as speech-to-speech conversations. This API is designed for use cases like customer support agents, AI voice assistants, and language learning apps. Unlike previous implementations that required multiple models for speech recognition and text-to-speech conversion, the Realtime API handles these processes seamlessly in one call, enabling applications to handle voice interactions much faster and with more natural flow.
