# Deepgram Flux Added to Telnyx Voice AI for Sub-Second Speech

[Release notes](https://telnyx.com/release-notes)

# Deepgram Flux now available in Telnyx Voice AI

### 6, Nov 2025

Telnyx now hosts Deepgram’s Flux model inside its global network, enabling sub-second conversational speech recognition. Running Flux at the edge removes public cloud hops, reducing latency for real-time AI voice agents.

**What’s new**

* **Flux integration:** Use Deepgram’s Conversational Speech Recognition model within Telnyx Voice AI.
* **Edge deployment:** Model hosted in Telnyx PoPs alongside telephony and GPU inference layers.
* **Low-latency processing:** Average end-of-turn detection in \~260 ms.
* **Unified pipeline:** Handles both transcription and turn detection—no separate VAD setup.
* **API access:** Available via Mission Control and Telnyx AI Assistants API.

**Why it matters**

* Reduces speech-to-response latency by 100–300 ms compared to cloud setups.
* Improves barge-in detection for more natural conversations.
* Simplifies configuration by consolidating transcription and endpoint logic.
* Increases reliability by keeping audio within Telnyx’s private backbone.

**Example use cases**

* Real-time customer support agents with human-like timing.
* Automated appointment scheduling and call routing.
* Interactive voice assistants for logistics or healthcare.

**Getting started**

1. Log in to Mission Control → AI → Transcription Models.
2. Select **Deepgram Flux** or set via API:

"transcription": {
  "model": "deepgram/flux",
  "language": "en",
  "settings": {
    "eot_threshold": 0.7,
    "eot_timeout_ms": 5000
  }
}

1. Test live conversations through AI Assistants or the Voice AI API.
