Who is Gradium best for?

Real-time voice agents
Streaming WebSocket APIs return first audio in about 200 ms, with Python and Rust SDKs and support for LiveKit and Pipecat.
Speech in and out from one account
Text-to-speech, transcription and live translation all draw on the same monthly credit balance.
Custom brand voices
An instant clone needs about 10 seconds of audio, and the M plan and above add Pro clones trained on 30 minutes or more.
Offline and on-premises apps
A 100M-parameter speech model runs offline on a CPU, and the API can also be self-hosted or run on your own servers.
