    ElevenLabs Releases Two Real-Time Speech-to-Speech Models, Eleven Realtime

    ElevenLabs has released two speech-to-speech models, Eleven Realtime, among which v1 Max scores 98.8% on Big Bench Audio with a response time of 0.57 seconds. The smaller v1 Mini targets low-cost natural conversation and can tell whether the other party has finished speaking or only said "mm-hmm," while v1 Max targets more complex tasks such as customer service. Both models are available through the ElevenAgents platform and the OpenAI-compatible Realtime API, billed per minute plus tokens, with v1 Max priced higher than v1 Mini.
