Build a working voice agent before lunch
AssemblyAI's new Voice Agent API turns the usual STT + LLM + TTS stack into a single WebSocket. Stream audio in, get audio back. ~1s latency, the most accurate speech recognition on the market (the kind that actually hears 16-digit order numbers), and tool calls that stay conversational instead of going silent. $4.50/hr flat. No per-token.
Most devs ship a working agent the same day.
