Deepgram
Speech recognition, conversational turn detection and text-to-speech models.
Public named STT options plus Flux TTS, Aura-2 and Aura-1. General aliases are grouped; voice options are listed inside their model family. Legacy models remain listed without assuming retirement. Custom models and hosted Whisper are excluded.
Start with the job your model needs to do. Then narrow by capabilities, provider and price.
Compare every model with the same request.
Estimate = (input tokens × input price + output tokens × output price) / 1,000,000. Include conversation history in input and billed reasoning in output. Input-only decision models ignore the output setting; enter all billed input for one decision, including its question and criteria. Media, tools and discounts are separate.
