sidahuj · x · 2026-11-02
Tazo Labs introduced Tazo, an "audio decision model" for live voice agents: it takes raw call audio plus a prompt and returns calibrated probabilities for each option, skipping the STT step entirely.
- 70.9% accuracy on real production calls vs 46.4% for STT + LLM
- Ranks #2 on the MMAU audio intelligence benchmark, with <200ms model latency, tuned for streaming calls
- A "None of the above" option handles out-of-scope and unsure states
