January 2026 Self-Hosted Release: Update Recommendation
In Deepgram's January 2026 self-hosted release (release-260115), we added new functionality to improve TTS response times from our API and Engine containers. Due to this product change, the January 2026 self-hosted release is not backwards-compatible with previous releases when used to serve TTS traffic.
Multiple LLM Provider Support
We've added new functionality that allows users to specify multiple LLM providers for your Voice Agent, ensuring your agent will automatically fallback to another provider should you experience any issues. The think object supports both a single provider and an array of providers. LLM providers will be used in the order that you specify them.
🤖 New LLM Models Support
We've added support for new LLM models in our Voice Agent API! Available Models: OpenAI GPT 5.1 Chat (gpt-5.1-chat-latest) OpenAI GPT 5.1 (gpt-5.1) Anthropic Claude Sonnet 4.5 (claude-sonnet-4-5 Google Gemini 3 (gemini-3-pro-preview) Implementation: Configure your chosen model in your Voice Agent settings: { "type": "Settings", "agent": { "think": {...
Flux: WebM Container Support Added
Flux now supports the WebM container format with Opus codec, providing seamless compatibility with audio sources that output WebM-formatted audio streams.
WebM Container Support
Flux now accepts WebM containers with Opus codec encoding: WebM containers with opus encoding When sending WebM containerized audio, omit the encoding and sample_rate parameters, Flux will automatically detect these from the container metadata.
Why This Matters
WebM is commonly used in web applications and streaming scenarios. This addition makes it easier to integrate Flux with audio sources that natively output WebM format, eliminating the need for format conversion.
Implementation
For WebM containerized audio: wss://api.deepgram.com/v2/listen?model=flux-general-en For detailed information about all supported Flux audio formats, see our Flux documentation .
