ElevenLabs launches Mini and Max realtime speech models for voice agents
ElevenLabs introduced Eleven Realtime v1 Mini and Max, speech-to-speech models for voice agents in more than 90 languages. Mini targets lower-cost conversations; Max targets complex tasks and tool use. They can be selected in ElevenAgents or used through a WebSocket Realtime API, subject to gradual workspace availability. OpenAI protocol compatibility does not make these OpenAI-trained models.
