Roark Live Bench · Suite v1.3 · Sweep of 23 October 2026
Voice AI models, ranked on live phone calls.
Every speech-to-text, language model and text-to-speech model, run in every combination on the same real call to the same agent. A model is ranked on every stack it runs in; the stacks are the evidence.

The read
- 430 of 642 cascades complete the task in at least 90% of calls, and the top 10 sit within 1 point of each other. What separates the top stacks is speed and cost.
- Median response time runs from 0.5 s to 6.0 s on the same agent and the same caller, a spread of 5.5 s that comes entirely from the models behind it.
- No stack wins everything. The fastest, OpenAI Whisper-1 + Google Gemini 3.8 Flash + OpenAI TTS-1 HD at 0.5 s, ranks 530 of 642 on task completion; the most complete is Speechmatics Linden-1 (own VAD) + OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol + OpenAI TTS-1 HD at 99%.
- The language model matters most: swapping it moves task completion by 7 points, against 3 for the speech engine and 2 for the transcriber.
Cascade vs Speech-to-Speech
The first choice to make. A cascade chains three models: one transcribes, one decides what to say, one speaks. A speech-to-speech model does all three at once. Both run the same agent on the same calls here.
- Cascades lead on task completion, tool use and time to first word; speech-to-speech leads on response time and cost per task. Neither wins outright, so the right choice depends on what your calls need.
- The biggest difference is task completion: 95% for cascades against 77% for speech-to-speech.
| Measure | Cascade | Speech-to-speech |
|---|---|---|
| Task completion | 95% (leads) | 77% |
| Tool use | 72% (leads) | 55% |
| Time to first word | 0.7 s (leads) | 1.3 s |
| Response time | 3.6 s | 2.6 s (leads) |
| Cost per task | $0.15 | $0.15 (leads) |
The three strongest of each, averaged. Cascades: Speechmatics Linden-1 (own VAD) + OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol + Cartesia Sonic-3.5; AssemblyAI Universal-3.6 Pro + OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol + Rime Coda; Speechmatics Linden-1 (own VAD) + OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol + Rime Coda. Speech-to-speech: grok-voice-think-fast-2.0; gemini-3.8-live; amazon.nova-2-sonic-v1:0. Each measure is scored 0 to 100 on its own scale, further out is better; the table gives the same figures in their own units.
Which to use
- Choose speech-to-speech when the pause matters more than the outcome: short transactional calls, callers who interrupt, queues where every half second costs you callers. Expect to pay more, and choose the model carefully (gpt-live-1 (backend gpt-6.1-sol) leads here).
- Choose a cascade when the call has to complete, when cost matters, or when you need to see which stage to fix. It is 13 points ahead on task completion here.
- Costs are what each stack’s providers charged for these calls, at the rates in effect when they ran. Telephony and hosting are not included.
Speech-to-Text
The transcriber turns the caller's speech into text. It decides what the agent thinks it heard, and nothing after it can start until it finishes.
- AssemblyAI Universal-3.6 Pro, AssemblyAI Universal-3.5 Pro, Deepgram Nova-3 and Speechmatics Enhanced (realtime) are level: none leads by more than the margin of error. Of them, AssemblyAI Universal-3.6 Pro costs least, at $0.030 a call. Avoid Speechmatics Linden-1 (own VAD): last on semantic word error rate (2.2%).
- Speechmatics Linden-1 (own VAD) delivers its transcript in 0.49 s, OpenAI Whisper-1 in 1.93 s: 1.44 s added to every turn of the call.
- AssemblyAI Universal-3.6 Pro is the most accurate: it changes the meaning of 0.9% of the caller's words, against 2.2% for Speechmatics Linden-1 (own VAD).
- In 341 of 648 cascades the transcriber is the slowest step of the turn, whichever model runs it.

Language model
The language model decides what the agent says and does. It has the most influence on whether the task gets done, and usually takes the largest share of each turn.
- Pick OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol: it leads on task completion (95%), tool use (71%) and instruction following (4.2 / 5). If speed matters more, Anthropic Claude Haiku 4.5 is the quickest, at 0.36 s, and completes 91%. Avoid OpenAI GPT-5.1: last on tool use (33%) and instruction following (4.1 / 5).
- Anthropic Claude Haiku 4.5 starts answering in 0.36 s, Google Gemini 3.8 Flash in 1.47 s: 1.11 s added to every turn of the call.
- OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol uses its tools most reliably: it handles its tools without a mistake on 71% of calls, against 33% for OpenAI GPT-5.1.
- In 161 of 648 cascades the language model is the slowest step of the turn, whichever model runs it.
Open a model to see where it ranks and the stacks it works best in.
Text-to-Speech
The speech engine is the voice the caller hears, and the last step before they hear anything.
- Cartesia Sonic-3.6, Cartesia Sonic-3.5 and ElevenLabs v4 Turbo are level: none leads by more than the margin of error. Of them, Cartesia Sonic-3.5 costs least, at $0.165 a call. Avoid OpenAI TTS-1 HD: last on readback accuracy (80%), word error rate (8.7%) and time to first audio byte (2.09 s).
- ElevenLabs v4 Turbo starts speaking in 0.11 s, OpenAI TTS-1 HD in 2.09 s: 1.97 s added to every turn of the call.
- Cartesia Sonic-3.6 is the most accurate: it reads codes, amounts and dates back correctly 87% of the time, against 80% for OpenAI TTS-1 HD.
- Cartesia Sonic-3.6 sounds the most human: 3.8 / 5, against 3.4 / 5 for ElevenLabs Flash v2.5.
- In 99 of 648 cascades the speech engine is the slowest step of the turn, most often with OpenAI TTS-1 HD (54 of them).

Speech-to-Speech models
One model listens, reasons and speaks, so there is nothing to swap and no stages to split. Each is judged on the whole call, with the same calls and the same scoring as every cascade.
- The model matters as much as the architecture: gpt-live-1 (backend gpt-6.1-sol) completes 86% of tasks, ElevenLabs Realtime v1 Mini 42%.
- grok-voice-think-fast-2.0 answers in 2.1 s against 4.1 s for gemini-2.5-flash-native-audio-preview-12-2025.
- Price varies as much as quality: $0.06 per completed task for amazon.nova-2-sonic-v1:0, $0.69 for gpt-realtime-2.

Every stack
The evidence behind the model boards: each combination on its own calls, scored on the same recipe. Open a stack for its full report, every figure it was scored on and the calls behind them.
Each score carries its 95% margin of error. A rank is the best place a stack could hold once every margin is allowed for, so stacks the calls cannot tell apart share one and are listed by the low end of their margin; hover a rank for the worst place it could hold. 92 stacks are level with the leader: their calls cannot tell them apart. Among them, 31 Google Gemini 3.8 Flash, 29 OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol, 19 Anthropic Claude Sonnet 5.5, 9 Anthropic Claude Haiku 4.5, 2 OpenAI GPT-4o mini, 1 OpenAI GPT-4.1 and 1 speech-to-speech; 48 AssemblyAI, 23 Deepgram and 20 Speechmatics; 48 Cartesia, 33 ElevenLabs, 9 Rime and 1 OpenAI. A cascade's figures are 25% its own calls and 75% what every other stack shows about its transcriber, language model and voice.
Not ranked here for missing data: Speechmatics Linden-1 + OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol + OpenAI TTS-1 HD (no response time or tool use or human-likeness or readback accuracy or voice consistency).
By industry
Each industry ranked on its own calls: the same five callers, its own tasks and tools. A stack has a handful of calls in each, so a cascade is ranked on what its transcriber, language model and voice show across every stack in that industry, and a speech-to-speech model on its own calls there. Pairings show on the main board. Every panel is on one scale, so a bar reads against the other industries as well as its own.
Healthcare
Reschedule an appointment. A patient moves a dermatology appointment around a work schedule, corrects their date of birth, narrows the times twice, and asks about the change fee, parking and insurance.
Home services
Urgent repair: triage and booking. A caller with a burst pipe needs safety advice first, then an emergency visit. The unit on file is out of date, the callback number gets corrected, and the caller pushes for an earlier visit.
Insurance
Report a new auto claim. A driver who was just rear-ended reports a claim, corrects the policy number, spells the other car’s plate, asks about the deductible, a rental and their premium, and needs a tow.
Customer support
Internet outage troubleshooting. A technical caller who has already rebooted the gateway pushes back on scripted steps, wants the line fixed, and asks for a bigger credit for the downtime.
How it works
Every number on this page comes from real phone calls, placed and scored the same way for every stack.
Real calls, four industries, five callers
Roark places real phone calls over the public phone network to a reference agent for each of four industries: rescheduling a clinic appointment, booking an urgent home repair, opening an auto insurance claim and fixing an internet outage. Each agent has its own prompt and tools, identical for every stack. The tasks carry the details real calls trip on: a corrected date of birth, a policy number spelled out, a constraint added halfway through.
Every industry is called by the same five simulated callers: a quiet US English line, a Spanish-accented caller on a city street, an Indian English caller in a busy café, a flustered Southern caller with a baby crying, and a fast caller who interrupts over construction noise. They are equally clear about what they want, so a call fails because of the agent, not the caller. Only the models change, so any difference on the board comes from them.
Each caller rings each industry once for a cascade and four times for a speech-to-speech model. A cascade's figures also draw on its parts, heard in dozens of other stacks; a speech-to-speech model has only its own calls, so it takes more of them.
That makes industries comparable over the same callers, and callers over the same tasks, and the board can be re-ranked by either. One caller within one industry is too few calls to judge, so the board never shows it.

Every model, in every combination
9 transcribers, 8 language models and 9 voices are run in every combination with each other, beside 13 speech-to-speech models. A model's own figures pool every stack it runs in, adjusted for its partners in each one, so every model is compared as if it ran with the same partners. A transcriber's figure rests on hundreds of calls with every language model and every voice, not on one lucky pairing.
That measures a model where it actually works: inside a running agent, on live phone audio, through interruptions, corrections and real turn-taking. A test that feeds a model clean audio files or one prompt at a time never sees any of that.
One score, weighted by what matters on a call
Each section ranks on a Roark score. Every figure scores 0 to 100 between two published points: full marks where doing better makes no difference to the caller, zero where the call breaks down. Each then counts at its weight, and the weights follow one order everywhere: whether the caller got what they rang for, then whether the agent got it right, then speed.
A stack, cascade or speech-to-speech, is scored on the outcome and the reply first, then on what each of its components got right on its own calls: the words its transcriber got wrong in a way that changes the meaning, whether its voice read codes and amounts back right, how human it sounded, and whether its tools were handled. A component that leads its section lifts every stack that carries it, by the same recipe for every stack. A figure a stack cannot carry, such as a semantic word error rate for a speech-to-speech model with no transcript, is credited at the field median, so the stack is neither flattered nor punished for it.
On a full sweep each cascade's figure is 25% what its own calls measured and 75% what every other stack shows about its transcriber, language model and voice, fitted across the whole sweep. The split is the same for every stack, so a lucky run does not lead and a stack's score does not move with how noisy its calls were. In an industry a stack has a handful of calls, so a cascade's figure there is what its transcriber, language model and voice show across every stack in that industry's calls, and a speech-to-speech model's is its own calls there. How a particular pairing beats or misses its parts shows on the main board, where each stack has all of its calls. The best overall pick, on the main board and in each industry, is the stack whose score is highest at the low end of its margin of error, so a few lucky calls cannot carry a stack past one whose score rests on hundreds. Stacks that share a rank are listed the same way, so the first row is the pick.
That order comes from real-world voice agent calls, where getting the conversation right predicts how a call ends more strongly than speed does. The latency points come from the same calls: replying faster than about 2 seconds made no measurable difference, and calls went measurably worse once the agent took more than about 3 seconds to reply.

Task completionscenario_adherence_check | 21% | 100% | 80% |
| An agent that completes fewer than four calls in five is not fit to deploy. On a full sweep, a cascade's figure is 25% what its own calls (20 or more) measured and 75% what every other stack shows about its transcriber, language model and voice, the same split for every stack, so a lucky run does not lead. Where the sweep is too small for that, and for a speech-to-speech model, the figure is the stack's own. In an industry a stack has a handful of calls, so a cascade's figure there is what its transcriber, language model and voice show across every stack in that industry's calls, and a speech-to-speech model's is its own calls there. How a particular pairing beats or misses its parts shows on the main board, where each stack has all of its calls. | |||

Counted only with price factored in: Cost per call
Factor in price and cost takes 25% of the score; the other weights keep their proportions. Price is scored on a log scale, so each doubling costs the same points.
A figure listed as shown, not scored is on the section’s boards and outside its score. Where a section has not collected a scored figure yet, the others share its weight.
Every call recorded and judged
Every call is recorded. Judge models score each transcript for the outcome and the conversation, and the timings come from the recording. Every figure links to the calls behind it.
Roark is on both sides of every call: it plays the caller, so it keeps the exact text its caller said, and it runs the agent under test, so it sees what the agent’s transcriber heard and what its model wrote for its voice. The transcript and voice figures come from lining those up, with no hand-made transcript in between. Each carries a margin from the synthetic voice or Roark’s transcriber in the loop. Every model faces the same ones under the same conditions, so the figures compare models on the same calls through the same voice and the same ear, though those slips need not fall evenly on each model. The rates will not match a vendor’s figure on a curated set; read them against each other.

Customer support
AGENTBrightwave Internet support, this is Alex. What’s going on with your service?
CUSTOMERHi, Alex. I'm having an issue with my home Internet. It has been down for about two hours now. I work from home, so this is a bit urgent. There is a road crew digging up the street right outside my building. So I'm wondering if that could be the reason. I already rebooted the gateway twice and checked all the cables. The Internet light is blinking orange. Can you check what is happening? My account number is BW883017. Sorry. Last digit is one.
CUSTOMERHello?
CUSTOMERAre you
CUSTOMERokay. So about my Internet, can you let me know if the road work causing the outage? I do need it back up as soon as possible.
AGENTThanks for your patience. I have your account pulled up as BW883011. There are no reported outages or maintenance in your area, so the roadwork doesn't appear to have affected the line. The signal reaching your gateway is strong. Since you already rebooted manually, I ran a line test and sent a remote reset to your gateway. It successfully re-registered and is showing back online. Your devices may take about two minutes to reconnect. Could you check your gateway's lights now to see if they've turned solid?
CUSTOMERYes. The Internet light just went solid white. How long until my devices will reconnect? And can you issue a credit for the downtime? I lost two hours of work because of this.
AGENTYour devices should automatically reconnect within about two minutes. I’ve also applied a $10.00 service credit to your account, BW883011, for the two hours of downtime. It will reflect on your next bill. Is there anything else I can help you with today?
CUSTOMERI lost two hours of work. Can you make it more than that?
AGENTI understand the frustration, especially while working from home.
CUSTOMERAlright. Understood. Thank you for your help. Goodbye.
AGENTYou're welcome! Glad we could get you back online. Have a great day, and goodbye!
Healthcare
AGENTRiverbend Health Clinic, this is Alex. How can I help you today?
CUSTOMERHey. Hi. Sorry. You might hear my baby crying in the background. I'm a bit flustered. I need to move my dermatology appointment that set for next Wednesday morning. I just found out I have to cover a shift at work then. Can you help me reschedule it? I can only do after 3PM. If that's possible.
AGENTNo problem at all, I can definitely help you move that appointment to after 3:00 PM. To get started, may I please have your full name and date of birth?
CUSTOMEROh, sure. Sorry if I'm all over the place. My name is Wade Carter. My date of birth is 03/17/1948. Oh, wait. Sorry. No. That's not right. It's... That's 1984. 03/17/1984. Is that okay?
CUSTOMERHello?
AGENTThank you, Wade. I've got your date of birth as March 17, 1984. I see your current dermatology appointment with Dr. Okafor is next Wednesday at 9:15 AM. Looking at slots after 3:00 PM, Dr. Okafor has an opening next Thursday at 4:10 PM. Would that work for you?
CUSTOMERThat actually sounds good. Yeah. Thursday at 04:10PM. Are you sure that's available? I just wanna make sure it won't get double booked or anything. If that's really open, I can take it. Is that okay?
AGENTYes, it's all confirmed! You are rescheduled to see Dr. Okafor on Thursday at 4:10 PM. Your confirmation code is RVB-3M8P2. Please arrive 15 minutes early with your photo ID and insurance card. Is there anything else I can help you with today?
CUSTOMEROkay. Thanks for confirming that. So is there any kind of fee for changing the appointment? I just wanna make I won't get charged for moving it.
AGENTThere is no fee! Changes made more than 24 hours before the appointment are completely free, so you won't be charged anything. Is there anything else you need help with?
CUSTOMERSorry. Just a couple more quick things. Where do I park when I come in? I'm always nervous about that.
AGENTWe have free patient parking available in Lot C, with the entrance located on River Road.
CUSTOMEROkay. Thanks. So just to double check, that's Lot C on River Road. Right? Is it pretty easy to find, or should I look out for a sign? Also, does doctor Okafor take Aetna insurance? I need to be sure before I come in.
AGENTYes, that's Lot C on River Road—it's clearly marked with signs for patient parking. As for insurance, I don't have access to specific provider network coverage details in my system. I recommend calling our billing office or checking directly with Aetna to confirm Dr. Okafor is in-network for your specific plan.
CUSTOMEROkay. Thanks for letting me know. I'll give him a call just to be safe. So just to double check, Thursday, 04:10PM with doctor Okafor, Confirmation code RVB3M8P2. Right?
AGENTThat is correct! Thursday at 4:10 PM with Dr. Okafor, and your confirmation code is RVB-3M8P2. We look forward to seeing you, and I hope the rest of your day goes smoothly!
CUSTOMERThank you.
CUSTOMERBye.
