Deep Dive

Opus Interactive Audio Codec & Speech Optimization

The gold standard for low-bitrate VoIP speech recognition.

Opus combines technologies from Skype's SILK (optimized for human speech) and Xiph.Org's CELT (for music and full-band audio). It is the primary audio codec for WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, and WebRTC telephony.

The Tool Room leverages browser Web Audio decoders to reconstruct 16 kHz PCM buffers from Opus packets, transcribing rapid conversational speech with high fidelity.
