ElevenLabs launches Eleven Realtime, two speech-to-speech models that each act as a complete voice agent in more than 90 languages.

The Mini model is for natural conversations at low cost, and the Max model is for complex tasks. Both can use any of the 17,000+ voices in the ElevenLabs library, and developers can use them in ElevenAgents or through a WebSocket API compatible with OpenAI's Realtime API.

The company says the models start talking within half a second and answer spoken reasoning questions correctly. Artificial Analysis reports 98.8% accuracy for Max and 75.9% for Mini on Big Bench Audio, and 87.1% tool-use task completion for Max versus 60.3% for Mini. These figures come from a third-party report, while the speed and reasoning claims are ElevenLabs' own.
