Mistral

The MistralVoice class provides text-to-speech and speech-to-text capabilities using Mistral's Voxtral audio models. It supports buffered and streaming TTS, batch transcription with diarization, and voice cloning via reference audio.

Usage example

import { MistralVoice } from '@mastra/voice-mistral'

const voice = new MistralVoice()

// Text-to-speech
const audioStream = await voice.speak('Hello, how can I help you?', {
  responseFormat: 'mp3',
})

// Speech-to-text
const text = await voice.listen(audioStream, {
  language: 'en',
})

// List available voices
const speakers = await voice.getSpeakers()

import { MistralVoice } from '@mastra/voice-mistral'

// Initialize with specific configuration
const voice = new MistralVoice({
  speechModel: {
    name: 'voxtral-mini-tts-2603',
    apiKey: 'your-mistral-api-key',
  },
  listeningModel: {
    name: 'voxtral-mini-latest',
    apiKey: 'your-mistral-api-key',
  },
  speaker: 'en_paul_neutral',
})

MistralModelConfig

name?:

string

Model ID for transcription. Use 'voxtral-mini-2507' for a pinned version.

apiKey?:

string

Mistral API key. Falls back to MISTRAL_API_KEY environment variable.

speaker?:

string

= 'en_paul_neutral'

model?:

string

Override the speech model for this call.

stream?:

boolean

Enable streaming TTS. Audio chunks are written to the stream as they arrive.

Returns: Promise<NodeJS.ReadableStream>

listen(audioStream, options?)

Transcribes audio using Mistral's Voxtral transcription model. Supports diarization, context biasing, and timestamp granularity.

audioStream:

NodeJS.ReadableStream

Audio stream to transcribe.

options?:

MistralListenOptions

language?:

string

Language code (e.g., 'en'). Improves accuracy when specified.

diarize?:

boolean

timestampGranularities?:

('segment' | 'word')[]

Timestamp detail level for transcription segments.

filetype?:

string

Audio file extension hint for the input stream.
