Frequently Asked Questions

ASR (Automatic Speech Recognition) is the technology that converts spoken audio into text. It's the first step in voice agent processing, transcribing what users say so the AI can understand and respond. ASR accuracy directly impacts agent performance—errors in transcription lead to misunderstandings and poor responses.

TTS (Text-to-Speech) is the technology that converts written text into spoken audio. It's the final step in voice agent processing, turning the AI's text responses into natural-sounding speech. Modern TTS systems use neural networks to produce human-like voices with appropriate intonation, pacing, and emotion.

A voice agent hallucination occurs when an AI generates false, fabricated, or nonsensical information that sounds plausible but isn't true. Hallucinations are a significant risk in production voice agents, potentially leading to customer misinformation, compliance violations, and brand damage. Testing and monitoring help detect and prevent hallucinations.

STT (Speech-to-Text) is another term for Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR)—the technology that transcribes spoken audio into written text. STT systems analyze audio signals, identify words and phrases, and output text for further processing by the AI. STT accuracy is critical for voice agent understanding.

VAD (Voice Activity Detection) is technology that determines when someone is speaking versus when there's silence or background noise. VAD is essential for voice agents to know when to listen and when to respond. Poor VAD can cause agents to interrupt users or miss speech entirely.

Prompt adherence measures how well a voice agent follows its defined instructions, scripts, and guardrails. High prompt adherence means the agent stays on-topic, follows required disclosures, and avoids prohibited behaviors. Low prompt adherence indicates the agent is going off-script, which can cause compliance and quality issues.

Turn-taking is the natural alternation between speakers in a conversation—knowing when one person stops talking and another should begin. Voice agents must accurately detect turn boundaries to avoid interrupting users or creating awkward silences. Poor turn-taking creates unnatural conversations that frustrate users.

Barge-in is when a user speaks over the voice agent, interrupting its response. Well-designed agents detect barge-in quickly, stop speaking, and listen to the user. Barge-in handling is critical for natural conversations—users shouldn't have to wait for the agent to finish before correcting it or providing information.

End-of-turn detection is the ability to recognize when a speaker has finished their turn in a conversation. It involves analyzing speech patterns, pauses, and linguistic cues to determine if someone is done speaking. Accurate end-of-turn detection prevents agents from interrupting too early or waiting too long to respond.

A voice agent persona is the consistent character, tone, and style that defines how an agent communicates. It includes voice characteristics, language patterns, formality level, and personality traits. Well-defined personas create consistent customer experiences and help agents maintain brand voice across all interactions.

LLM inference latency is the time it takes for a Large Language Model to process input and generate a response. In voice agents, LLM inference is often the largest contributor to overall response latency. Optimizing inference latency through model selection, caching, and infrastructure tuning is critical for responsive agents.

Call transcription accuracy measures how correctly the ASR system converts spoken words into text, typically expressed as a percentage or Word Error Rate (WER). High transcription accuracy is essential for voice agents to understand user intent correctly. Accuracy can vary based on accents, background noise, and audio quality.

Latency in voice agents is the time delay between when a user finishes speaking and when the agent begins responding. It includes speech recognition processing time, LLM inference time, text-to-speech generation, and network transmission. Low latency is critical for natural-feeling conversations that don't frustrate users with awkward silence gaps.

Latency directly affects customer experience and conversation quality. Poor latency creates awkward silence gaps that make customers feel the agent has abandoned the call, leading to frustration and call abandonment. Industry benchmarks suggest responses should begin within 1.5 seconds. High latency can significantly reduce conversion rates and customer satisfaction.

Time to First Word (TTFW) is the duration between when a user finishes speaking and when the agent begins audibly responding. It measures the complete processing pipeline including voice activity detection, speech recognition, LLM processing, and text-to-speech synthesis. TTFW is the primary latency metric for evaluating voice agent responsiveness.

Industry benchmarks suggest an acceptable Time to First Word (TTFW) is around 1.5 seconds or less. Users begin perceiving delays above 1.5 seconds, and latency over 2 seconds significantly degrades experience. Best-in-class voice agents target sub-1-second TTFW. Hamming helps you measure and optimize toward these benchmarks.

Yes. Hamming measures latency percentiles including p50 (median), p90, and p99. Percentile metrics reveal the distribution of response times, helping you understand typical performance versus tail latency affecting your worst experiences.

Error handling is how a voice agent detects, responds to, and recovers from failures during conversations. It includes gracefully managing ASR misrecognitions, API timeouts, context loss, and unexpected user inputs. Effective error handling maintains conversation flow and user trust even when issues occur, preventing frustrating dead ends.

Poor error handling destroys customer experience, causing frustration, confusion, and call abandonment. When agents fail silently, repeat errors, or crash conversations, customers lose trust and may never return. Robust error handling ensures agents recover gracefully, maintain context, and provide helpful fallbacks that keep conversations productive despite issues.

Voice agents commonly face ASR misrecognitions from background noise or unclear speech, API timeouts from slow external services, context loss when conversation state isn't properly maintained, LLM hallucinations, network failures, and unexpected user inputs including profanity, gibberish, or out-of-scope requests requiring graceful handling.

When ASR confidence is low, agents should politely ask for clarification with specific, contextual rephrasing. For example: 'I didn't quite catch that. Could you repeat your account number?' If repeated attempts fail, offer alternative input methods or escalate to a human agent rather than proceeding with potentially incorrect information.

Agents should acknowledge the delay naturally with responses like 'Let me look that up for you' followed by fallback messaging such as 'I'm having trouble accessing that right now. Can I try a different approach?' Implement retry logic with exponential backoff, and escalate to human agents when retries are exhausted.

When context is lost, agents should summarize the last known conversation state and confirm with the user before proceeding. For example: 'I want to make sure I have this right—we were discussing your account balance. Is that correct?' If confirmation fails, politely restart the relevant flow rather than proceeding with assumptions.

Yes, you can thoroughly test fallback prompts with Hamming. Simulate error conditions like API timeouts, low ASR confidence, and context loss to verify fallback responses activate correctly. Test that fallbacks feel natural, provide helpful alternatives, and maintain user trust rather than creating dead ends or frustrating loops.
