Design Arena says Grok Voice 3.0, built by xAI, ranks first on AudioAgentBench with 85.1%, 7.4 points above Grok Voice Think Fast 2.0 and ahead of OpenAI's GPT Live 1.

AudioAgentBench is a Design Arena leaderboard for speech-to-speech models acting as voice agents. Design Arena says it tests six multi-turn, customer-facing scenarios such as booking appointments, placing grocery orders and planning events, and scores tool use, instruction following and state tracking. It uses recordings of real human speakers rather than synthetic voices.

The ranking comes from Design Arena's own benchmark, which it created and launched the same day.
