Deepgram's voice AI runs on NVIDIA® accelerated computing. From cloud APIs to self-hosted deployments in a customer's VPC or datacenter, Deepgram's models are optimized for NVIDIA GPUs, and the two companies' technologies come together across the workloads where voice AI carries the most weight: real-time voice agents, enterprise transcription, and regulated on-premises deployments.

For voice agents, the Deepgram Voice Agent API features NVIDIA Nemotron as its featured open-model LLM option. Nova-3 handles streaming speech-to-text, Nemotron reasoning models handle the LLM layer, and Deepgram TTS closes the loop, with the Voice Agent API owning turn-taking, barge-in, and LLM streaming across the pipeline. In measured deployments inside a customer VPC, the stack delivered median end-to-end latency under 700 ms, with 90th percentile latency under one second. Nemotron models are packaged as NVIDIA NIM™ microservices, which makes deployment repeatable across cloud, VPC, on-premises, and hybrid environments. Nemotron 3 Nano is live in the Deepgram playground today.

For regulated industries, Deepgram delivers private voice AI through on-premises deployments powered by Fortanix Confidential AI and NVIDIA Confidential Computing. Deepgram's models run on NVIDIA Confidential Computing-enabled GPUs inside a hardware-isolated trusted execution environment, keeping both audio data and model weights encrypted throughout active use. Healthcare systems, financial institutions, and public-sector organizations can deploy production voice AI while meeting HIPAA, GDPR, and national data-residency requirements. The same on-premises path extends to the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA for enterprises running Dell infrastructure.

“Real-time voice AI helps industries scale efficiency and safety — empowering healthcare providers to update records more quickly, letting technicians repair equipment without putting tools down to check manuals — but sensitive data needs to be secure throughout processing. NVIDIA Confidential Computing, combined with Fortanix and Deepgram, provides a powerful platform for regulated industries to deploy production-grade voice AI applications with sovereignty and trust.” — Justin Boitano, Vice President, Enterprise AI Platforms, NVIDIA

The fastest way to try the joint stack is the Deepgram playground, where Nemotron 3 Nano is available in the Voice Agent think-model dropdown. For enterprise rollouts with data residency or compliance requirements, deepgram.com/contact-us is the direct path.
