Speech recognition and voice-agent APIs. Flux adds model-integrated end-of-turn detection for voice agents; Nova covers conventional streaming and batch transcription.
Deepgram is pay as you go with a $200 free credit, plus a Growth tier and Enterprise. Streaming rates on 2026-10-17 were promotional: Nova-3 Monolingual $0.0048/min (regular $0.0077), Flux English $0.0065/min (regular $0.0077), Nova-3 Multilingual $0.0058/min (regular $0.0092). Growth is lower. Checked 2026-10-17. source ↗
The dg CLI includes an MCP server (stdio by default, or HTTP/SSE) that proxies Deepgram developer API tools to Claude Code, Cursor and Windsurf, using your stored login or an API key. A separate docs MCP server answers questions about Deepgram's documentation. source ↗
How Deepgram connects to each AI platform: native connector or MCP, API through code the agent writes, browser control, or file upload.
| Platform | MCP / connector | API (agent-written code) | Browser | Upload / export |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Claude (incl. Claude Code) | Not documented Deepgram has an official MCP server and Claude (incl. Claude Code) supports MCP, but Deepgram's docs don't name this pairing. Auth setup may differ.

Confirmed means both the tool's and the platform's official docs describe that route (links in the cell); IonBin has not tested every pairing. Not documented means it may work, but no official docs describe that route end to end. Checked Oct 17, 2026.
