Deepgram brings its Voice AI Platform to the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA, giving enterprises a path to run speech-to-text, text-to-speech, and voice agents on Dell infrastructure inside their own data centers. The stack pairs Deepgram's models with NVIDIA accelerated computing on Dell servers, operated through the Dell AI Factory model. For security-sensitive workloads, Fortanix Confidential AI adds model-in-use protection on NVIDIA Confidential Computing-enabled GPUs, keeping audio data and model weights encrypted throughout processing. This gives regulated and data-sovereign organizations a supported route to production voice AI without sending audio to a public cloud. A joint reference architecture is in development so teams can deploy a validated configuration rather than assembling one from scratch. If you are planning an on-premises voice AI deployment on Dell infrastructure, reach out via deepgram.com/contact-us to discuss deployment options.

Vapi is one of the leading voice agent platforms, and Deepgram provides the speech layer inside it. Builders who pick Vapi to ship a production voice agent get Deepgram's Nova-3 STT, Flux for conversational turn detection, and Aura-2 TTS as native model options, configured in a few clicks rather than a custom integration. Vapi handles 62M+ calls monthly with 99.99% uptime, making it the proven choice for enterprises requiring scale across voice, SMS, and chat. Deepgram is integrated for its speed and human-like voice quality, and powers the STT and TTS surface that real production voice agents depend on. Voice agent quality lives in the speech layer. The transcription needs to handle interruptions, background noise, accents, and the alphanumeric read-back that real conversations include. The TTS needs to sound natural at low enough latency that the caller does not notice. Deepgram's voice-native foundational models are built specifically for those requirements, and Vapi exposes them as the platform's recommended models for production agents. The pattern: a developer picks Vapi to handle orchestration (transport, interruption, tool calls, state), picks Deepgram models for STT and TTS, drops in an LLM, and ships a working voice agent in hours. For latency-critical or regulated workloads, the same Vapi configuration runs against Deepgram's self-hosted runtime, keeping audio inside the customer's environment. If you are building a voice agent on Vapi and want production-grade speech, Deepgram is the default. Resources below.

JetBridge is a custom software engineering firm founded by the engineers behind Five9 and DoctorBase. The team builds production-grade voice AI applications for VC-backed startups and mid-market companies, with deep experience in contact center and healthcare environments where accuracy and compliance requirements leave no margin for a mediocre speech layer. JetBridge integrates Deepgram's models as core components in the applications it builds for clients. Nova-3 handles real-time transcription for contact center and CX workflows; Nova-3 Medical covers clinical documentation and healthcare applications where domain-specific vocabulary and HIPAA compliance are requirements, not optional. The team has applied this stack for companies backed by Andreessen Horowitz, including Asimov, and for enterprise clients including LabCorp and Compass. JetBridge runs on a Forward Deployed Engineering model: clients see a working proof of concept before committing to a full engagement. That approach compresses the timeline between architecture review and working software, which matters for startups building toward a fundraise and for mid-market companies running a competitive evaluation. There is no upfront cost to validate the approach before the partnership begins. Teams evaluating Deepgram for a custom integration can reach JetBridge directly at deepgram@jetbridge.com for a free architecture consultation, including cost and timeline estimates. JetBridge responds within minutes.
