How to Handle Background Noise When Using Conversation Relay in PHP
When your speech-to-text model mishears a caller, the entire response chain breaks down from that first bad transcript. This tutorial walks you through choosing the right Deepgram speech model for noisy conditions in a Twilio Conversation Relay agent, and shows you which TwiML (Twilio Markup Language) attributes to tune when the defaults fall short. When a human call center agent hears a noisy caller, they can ask for clarification or piece together meaning from context.
