Vercel added audio and voice support to AI Gateway, including realtime voice, text-to-speech, and speech-to-text capabilities. The new features are in beta and available in AI SDK 7, with initial models from OpenAI and xAI. Audio calls receive the same provider routing, observability, spend controls, and bring-your-own-key support as other modalities.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://vercel.com/blog/realtime-voice-agents-on-ai-gateway:

> AI Gateway now supports audio/voice. You can add realtime voice, text to speech, and speech to text with the same calls you already use for text, image, and video, routed through AI Gateway alongside every other modality.
