General Introduction
Moshi Chat is an end-to-end real-time AI voice assistant from Kyutai, a French non-profit AI lab. It not only listens in real-time, but also engages in natural conversations and supports multimodal interactions, including the ability to see, hear, and speak.Moshi Chat understands the user's intonation and can synchronize listening and speaking at any given moment. With its unique features and open source availability, Moshi Chat is a pioneer in AI development.
It uses Mimi as its streaming neural audio codec, capable of processing 24 kHz audio and compressing it to a bandwidth of 1.1 kbps with 80ms latency. moshi can process two audio streams at the same time, one corresponding to moshi and the other to the user, enabling them to listen and speak at the same time. The model is designed to understand and express emotions and supports multiple languages and accents.
Function List
- Real-time voice interaction: supports listening and speaking at the same time, providing a smooth dialog experience.
- Multimodal interaction: supports integrated processing of speech, text and visual information.
- Emotional understanding: the ability to recognize and express a wide range of emotions makes interactions more natural.

Function Operation Guide
real time voice interaction
- When you open Moshi Chat, you can talk to it directly through the microphone.
- Moshi Chat processes your voice input in real time and responds accordingly.
multimodal interaction
- In addition to voice, you can interact with Moshi Chat through text input.
- Moshi Chat is able to process both voice and text messages to provide an integrated interactive experience.
emotional understanding
- Moshi Chat has the ability to recognize and express emotions, so you can try to talk to it in different tones and observe its reaction.
- This feature makes interaction with Moshi Chat more vivid and natural.
open source project
- Kyutai provides the open source code for Moshi Chat, which you can find on GitHub.
- You can download the code and modify and optimize it locally to participate in the collaborative development of the community.
Efficient performance with low latency
- Moshi Chat is able to efficiently handle two batch sizes with 24GB of VRAM and supports multiple backends such as CUDA, Metal and CPU.
- Its optimized inference code and enhanced KV caching ensure that the model runs efficiently, delivering an end-to-end latency of 200 milliseconds to ensure real-time response.
