Google introduced Gemini 3.1 Flash Live on Mar 26, 2026 as its new real-time audio model for developers, enterprises, and consumer products. The release ties together the Gemini Live API, Gemini Enterprise for Customer Experience, Search Live, and Gemini Live around a single lower-latency voice stack.
Mistral has published Voxtral Realtime and Voxtral Mini Transcribe V2, adding sub-200ms streaming transcription, 13-language support, and open weights for the realtime model. The company also paired the launch with an audio playground in Mistral Studio and aggressive API pricing at $0.003/min and $0.006/min.
