# NVIDIA Speech NIM
Use this skill when an agent must plan or implement a speech workflow with NVIDIA Speech NIM microservices rather than a generic speech API. Treat NVIDIA Speech NIM as a deployable containerized speech stack: the application talks to independent ASR, TTS, and NMT NIM containers over HTTP, gRPC, or WebSocket APIs, and the agent remains responsible for model/profile choice, orchestration, rights checks, audio custody, and QA.
Facts in this skill were verified from official NVIDIA sources on 2026-07-10 unless noted otherwise.
## First classify the job
Separate the user's request into one or more speech capabilities:
- ASR/STT: audio to text for transcription, captions, subtitles, call analytics, meeting notes, voice-agent input, or speech-to-text translation where an ASR model supports translation.
- TTS: text to speech for narration, localized voice-over, conversational output, accessibility, kiosk/agent responses, or approved voice cloning.
- NMT: text translation between languages. NVIDIA's documented Speech NIM translation route is a separate NMT container, not hidden inside every ASR or TTS call.
- Speech-to-speech translation: a pipeline that chains ASR -> NMT -> TTS. Do not present it as a single monolithic Speech NIM unless the selected model/card explicitly exposes an end-to-end speech-to-speech endpoint.
