What is WebSocket?
Recently, we published a blog post describing why WebSockets are great for real-time services. In this article, we describe the process of establishing, maintaining and closing the WebSockets connection.

The WebSocket protocol (commonly referred to as “WebSockets”) enables real time interactive data exchanges between clients and servers, and application-to-application. It is ideal for connecting communications applications to services offered by specialized cloud providers.

Use Realtime API in VoxEngine to build speech-to-speech voice AI with data residency control. Set baseUrl to any OpenAI Realtime-compatible endpoint, including Azure EU deployments, and control where call audio is processed

OpenAI has recently announced GA version of their Realtime API that Voximplant now fully supports

Voximplant now includes a native Deepgram module that connects any Voximplant call to Deepgram’s Voice Agent API for real-time, speech‑to‑speech conversations. You can stream audio from phone numbers, SIP trunks, WhatsApp, or WebRTC into Deepgram’s unified agent environment—combining STT, LLM reasoning, and TTS—and play responses via Voximplant’s serverless runtime with minimal latency.

Today Ultravox announced they are directly integrating Voximplant into their platform to provide SIP capabilities. The integration builds on Voximplant’s deep telephony and Voice AI tooling

Connect any OpenAI-compatible text LLM to your voice AI pipeline in VoxEngine via Chat Completions or Responses API. Set baseUrl to any provider or your own deployment, including EU endpoints for data residency

Voximplant now lets developers build full-cascade voice AI pipelines in VoxEngine without sacrificing turn-taking quality.

Voximplant now includes a native Grok module that connects any Voximplant call to xAI’s Grok Voice Agent API for real-time, speech-to-speech conversations. With a single VoxEngine scenario, you can interact via audio with Grok over phone numbers, SIP trunks and infrastructure, WhatsApp Business, or WebRTC into Grok — all without building custom media gateways or WebSocket streaming infrastructure.
