The WebSocket protocol (commonly referred to as “WebSockets”) enables real time interactive data exchanges between clients and servers, and application-to-application. It is ideal for connecting communications applications to services offered by specialized cloud providers.

Voximplant now lets developers build full-cascade voice AI pipelines in VoxEngine without sacrificing turn-taking quality.

New Features in Voximplant Kit: Update overview. We are constantly working to improve our product to make it easier to use and more effective for you. In this update, we have added several useful features. Here’s what’s new:

Voximplant now includes a native Cartesia module for streaming, low-latency text-to-speech (TTS). You can use a single VoxEngine API to synthesize speech in real time, connect it to any call (PSTN, SIP, WebRTC, WhatsApp) and control playback from a Large Language Model (LLM) or other source, all inside VoxEngine.

The new integration enables instant connection of any Voximplant call to an Ultravox agent, delivering seamless voice-to-voice conversations.

Voximplant now includes a native Grok module that connects any Voximplant call to xAI’s Grok Voice Agent API for real-time, speech-to-speech conversations. With a single VoxEngine scenario, you can interact via audio with Grok over phone numbers, SIP trunks and infrastructure, WhatsApp Business, or WebRTC into Grok — all without building custom media gateways or WebSocket streaming infrastructure.

Voximplant has new realtime speech generation for voice AI from Inworld, our latest Voice AI text-to-speech (TTS) partner. Together, we combine state-of-the-art TTS with carrier-grade connectivity so you can build voice agents that sound like your brand, not a generic robot.

Voximplant now includes a native Cartesia Line / Agents connector that connects any Voximplant call to a Cartesia Line voice agent for real-time, speech-to-speech conversations—over PSTN, SIP, WebRTC, or WhatsApp Business Calling—without building custom media gateways or WebSocket streaming infrastructure.
