We're a small team in Madrid building Lokutor. We want voice agents to work where people need them: in the cloud, inside a company's own servers, and on devices that cannot depend on a connection.
That means paying attention to the speech models themselves, not only the orchestration around them. Size, deployment and what happens during a conversation all matter.
Our platform work covers four parts of that conversation:
Psst cleans the caller's audio before speech recognition. We build it for the recogniser behind it, not just for audio that sounds cleaner.
Lokutor is a speech AI company in Madrid. We design and train our own small speech foundation models: Versa (text to speech in 9 languages, incl. Catalan, Galician and Basque), Turno (turn-taking: knows when the caller is done and lets them interrupt) and Psst (noise suppression), with Conv 2.0 (speech recognition) in development. Small models make it fast and affordable: agents answer in about 0.6 s (596 ms median) for about 5¢ a minute, LLM included. Live demo on lokutor.com, no sign-up.
