OpenAI launches GPT-Realtime-2 reasoning voice model
OpenAI released GPT-Realtime-2 in the API, a realtime voice model that can reason through spoken requests, call tools, and keep conversations flowing naturally. The launch adds 128K context, longer sessions, and stronger recovery behavior for production voice agents.
Good fit for voice agents and assistant UX. The main change is tool use plus GPT-5-class reasoning in a voice-native model, with longer sessions and better recovery for real-time workflows. Cost control still matters because audio pricing is premium.
