Voice Quality Issue Affecting AI Understanding
# support

Hi Vapi team, I’ve been listening to my recent call logs to check how the AI booking assistant performs during phone calls. I noticed that the AI voice sounds clear and natural, but my own voice in the recordings is very unclear and low-quality it’s hard to understand what I’m saying. Because of that, it seems the AI sometimes doesn’t correctly understand my speech. We believe that improving the audio input or microphone quality could help the AI recognize what the user says more accurately. Could you please take a look at this and see if there’s a way to improve the audio quality on my side or in the system setup? Thank you!

To improve your voice clarity for the AI assistant, enable Smart Denoising in your assistant's configuration. This filters out background noise and enhances user speech quality. Here’s a quick example for your setup:
Copy code
javascript
backgroundSpeechDenoisingPlan: {
  smartDenoisingPlan: {
    enabled: true
  }
}
Apply this setting and test your calls again for clearer user audio and better AI understanding. Source: Background Speech Denoising documentation
