Deepgram overhauls STT lineup with Flux Multilingual, retires Nova models
What happened
Between the Apr 27, 2026 and May 4, 2026 captures of Deepgram's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: STT model lineup overhauled: Flux renamed to Flux English; Flux Multilingual added; Nova-1 & 2, Enhanced, Base removed; limited-time promotional streaming rates noted. Pulse files it as a packaging change (package change) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Sep 21, 2026) lists Growth at $333.33 and Pay As You Go at $0 per 1,000 input tokens (Audio Intelligence) + $0.01 per minute (STT Flux English pre-recorded).
It lands 7 days after Deepgram's previous change, "Deepgram halves speech-to-text API concurrency limits for starter plans" (Apr 27, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Deepgram slashes Voice Agent API prices across all tiers" (Apr 1, 2026), "Deepgram Cuts Voice Agent API Rates, Triples Concurrency Limits" (Apr 3, 2026) and "Deepgram triples concurrency limits across all API tiers" (Feb 16, 2026). Deepgram has been tracked since 2023-11-14.
In the same window OpenAI, Assemblyai and Otter also changed their AI & Machine Learning pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
