What Sonex Labs is
Sonex Labs provides voice AI products for speech synthesis, speech recognition, voice agents, and calling workflows through web, API, and self-hosted access. Its Pāṇini model supports more than 250 languages and can switch languages within a sentence while retaining the same voice. The platform lists 120 voices, streaming audio, emotion controls, non-verbal tags, and pronunciation dictionaries. Voice agents handle inbound and outbound conversations, live data lookups, and handoff to a human with conversation context. Voice cloning is supported, with WAV, MP3, OGG, Opus, and μ-law exports and a maximum input of 5,000. Integrations include major communications, AI, business, automation, database, messaging, and payment services listed by the developer. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with tenant-isolated workspaces and audit trails. Enterprise deployments can use managed cloud, private VPC, on-premises, hybrid, or air-gapped environments. Plans include usage billing, a $5.00 monthly plan, and enterprise custom pricing.
