2026-05-01T00:00:00+00:00

WebSocket Responses API mode is now available. Drive the Responses API over a single, long-lived WebSocket connection for lower end-to-end latency on tool-heavy agent workloads. For more details, see the WebSocket Mode docs.

Context Compaction

2026-05-01T00:00:00+00:00

Smart Turn for Streaming STT

2026-05-01T00:00:00+00:00

The streaming Speech to Text API now supports Smart Turn end-of-turn detection. When enabled via the smart turn query parameter, an ML model predicts whether the speaker has finished their thought at silence boundaries — reducing false endpointing during dictation, number sequences, and mid-sentence pauses. Use smart turn timeout to set a maximum silence fallback. For more details, see the Smart Turn docs.
