Description
Lokutor is a speech AI company in Madrid. We design and train our own small speech foundation models: Versa (text to speech in 9 languages, incl. Catalan, Galician and Basque), Turno (turn-taking: knows when the caller is done and lets them interrupt) and Psst (noise suppression), with Conv 2.0 (speech recognition) in development. Small models make it fast and affordable: agents answer in about 0.6 s (596 ms median) for about 5¢ a minute, LLM included. Live demo on lokutor.com, no sign-up.

Could you build this?
No Training custom speech foundation models, specialized regional accent TTS, conversational turn-taking, and neural noise suppression requires deep ML research, large datasets, and expensive GPU compute.
What it would actually take: Requires an ML research team with expertise in acoustic modeling, speech synthesis, and real-time DSP. The pipeline would need PyTorch-based architectures for speech tokenization/diffusion, extensive multi-dialect audio datasets (specifically low-resource regional languages), and low-latency inference orchestration running on dedicated GPU clusters.
