Rime is a text-to-speech platform that provides AI voice models built for real-time conversations, such as phone calls handled by voice agents. Teams choose from 600+ voices and adjust accent, pace and tone, with pronunciation controls for names, addresses and alphanumerics. The company says it was founded by linguists and focuses on the rhythm and stress of natural speech.
Two models are offered: Coda, aimed at natural expression, and Mist v3, aimed at the lowest latency, with a published P50 time to first audio of 37 ms. Audio streams over HTTP and WebSockets, and framework integrations include LiveKit, Pipecat and Twilio. Rime can be used through an API or self-hosted via Docker Compose or Kubernetes, including on-prem and VPC deployments on the Enterprise plan.
Rime targets enterprises in banking, healthcare, hospitality and food ordering, and states it powers over 1.5 million minutes of conversation. Customers quoted include Trillet AI, SigmaMind AI, ConverseNow, Attune and LiveKit. Enterprise plans add HIPAA BAAs, SOC 2 Type II reports, SLAs and unlimited custom voice clones.
