The engine behind Aria

A real-time voice agent, built on a live websocket.

Every interview streams bi-directional audio over a persistent connection — no polling, no page reloads, no dropped context. Here's how the platform holds a natural conversation from first hello to final scorecard.

Under the hood

Four systems working in lockstep, every millisecond.

Streaming speech-to-text

Candidate audio is transcribed continuously as they speak, not in batches after silence.

Sub-300ms voice synthesis

Aria's responses are generated and streamed back before the candidate finishes their thought.

Turn-taking & interruption

The agent detects overlapping speech and yields or continues exactly like a human would.

Context-aware follow-ups

Full conversation state is retained across the call, driving relevant, adaptive questioning.

The connection

One persistent socket. Zero re-connect stutter.

Unlike request-response chat widgets, Aria opens a single websocket for the full interview. Audio frames stream continuously in both directions, so there's no lag spike when the candidate starts speaking again after a pause.
