The details

• Performance: Flash achieves 75ms base latency plus application and network latency, making it suitable for conversational AI applications.

• Technical Specifications: Available via API using model IDs "eleven_flash_v2" and "eleven_flash_v2_5". While it has slightly lower quality and emotional depth compared to Turbo models, it prioritizes speed for real-time interactions.

• Implementation: Accessible through ElevenLabs' Conversational AI platform or directly via API integration. Developers can reference the model selection guide for specific use cases.

Why it matters

Flash's ultra-low latency brings AI voice interactions closer to natural human conversation speeds. This advancement enables more realistic and responsive AI voice applications, particularly in real-time interactive scenarios where minimal delay is key.
