TEN VAD is a lightweight, low-latency voice activity detection library with an ONNX model for real-time speech detection. It supports C, Python, Go, Java, and JavaScript/WASM across desktop, mobile, and browser platforms.
Use cases
- detect speech segments in a real-time audio stream
- build a voice agent that knows when the user stops talking
- replace silero-vad with a faster lower-latency VAD
- trim silence from audio before running ASR
- run voice activity detection in the browser with wasm
- gate wake-word or voice-command pipelines with speech detection
When to choose
- you need low-latency, real-time VAD for conversational AI or voice agents
- you need cross-platform deployment including mobile and browser via ONNX/WASM
- you want a lightweight model with bindings for C, Python, Go, Java, or JS
When to avoid
- you need full speech recognition or transcription rather than just speech detection
- you require a permissively licensed library, since the license is non-standard
- you need offline batch audio analysis with rich tooling rather than streaming inference
