Code snippet
Call Deepgram Nova 3 Medical through the OpenAI-compatible API — STT via LLM.API (see docs for audio endpoints).
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(
api_key="YOUR_LLMAP_KEY",
base_url="https://api.llmapi.ai/v1",
)
resp = client.chat.completions.create(
model="nova-3-medical",
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a precise product assistant."},
{"role": "user", "content": "Give me three crisp launch checklist items."},
],
)

Why Build on LLM.API?
One unified API. Every major model. Built-in reliability, cost control, and observability.
-
Intelligent AI Routing
Automatically route each request to the best model across providers based on latency, cost, and quality—without changing your integration or redeploying code.
One endpoint, every model. -
Cost-Aware Execution
Control spend with per-request cost estimation, smart model selection, and centralized quotas so teams can experiment fast without runaway bills or manual tracking.
More performance, less spend. -
Resilient Fallback Flows
Define automatic, provider-agnostic fallbacks to keep your app up during outages, rate limits, or timeouts—no brittle failover logic scattered through your codebase.
Never go dark on users. -
Deep LLM Observability
Trace every call across providers with logs, metrics, and request replay so you can debug, tune prompts, and optimize model choices from one unified dashboard.
See every token, everywhere. -
Task-Level Orchestration
Describe tasks, not models. LLM.API maps them to the right tools, models, and prompts so you ship complex AI workflows with minimal glue code.
Think tasks, not models. -
High-Throughput Batch APIs
Process millions of inferences efficiently with optimized batch pipelines, concurrency controls, and retry logic—all behind the same simple interface you use for single calls.
Scale from 1 to millions.

COMMUNITY
What developers say about speech-to-text models
Summarised from publicly published developer and community reviews of this model family. Opinions are the sources’, not LLM.API’s, and may not be specific to Deepgram Nova 3 Medical.
- Head-to-head tests of the leading APIs land within a point or two of each other; the choice usually comes down to language coverage, streaming latency and batch pricing.
- Voice-agent developers report streaming latency and endpointing quality matter more in production than headline word-error rates.
- Whisper-family models remain the default open baseline, with hosted providers winning on real-time features and diarization.
