New Features

🎯 Smart Formatting for More Readable Conversations

We’ve added a new smart_format option to improve transcript readability in UI applications. This feature enables smart formatting for better user experience when displaying transcribed conversation.

Key Features:

• Enhanced transcript formatting for UI applications
• Defaults to false for backward compatibility

Implementation: Configure the smart_format option in your Voice Agent listen provider settings:

1
{
2
  "agent": {
3
    "listen": {
4
      "provider": {
5
        "type": "deepgram",
6
        "model": "nova-3",
7
        "smart_format": true
8
      }
9
    }
10
  }
11
}

For complete implementation details, see our Voice Agent configuration documentation.

🔒 Model Improvement Program Opt-Out

Users can now opt out of our Model Improvement Program when using the Voice Agent API.

Implementation: Add mip_opt_out: true to your Settings message:

1
{
2
  "type": "Settings",
3
  "mip_opt_out": true,
4
  "agent": {
5
    "listen": {
6
      "provider": {
7
        "type": "deepgram",
8
        "model": "nova-3"
9
      }
10
    }
11
  }
12
}
