Centerbeam AI Platform
Realtime AI Infrastructure From Application to Model
Centerbeam AI provides the realtime infrastructure behind Nova — connecting applications, users, tools, state, knowledge, workflows, and supported AI models through one model-neutral voice and multimodal interaction layer.
One realtime layer. Any model. Any interface.
Platform Architecture
One interaction architecture across applications
Nova sits between the application and the realtime intelligence behind it. Developers build against one application-facing layer while Nova manages the realtime interaction infrastructure underneath.
Applications
Websites, software, mobile applications, games, customer experiences, enterprise systems, and operational workflows.
Nova SDK & API
One application-facing layer for realtime interaction, events, tools, state, workflows, and supported AI providers.
Realtime AI Models
Connect supported providers such as OpenAI Realtime, Google Gemini Live, and xAI Grok Voice Agent without designing the application around one vendor.
Core Design Principle
Model-Neutral by Design
Nova normalizes supported realtime AI providers behind a common application layer. Your application logic, tools, workflows, state, and user experience are separated from the underlying model provider.
- Common application-facing event architecture
- Change supported providers without redesigning the product
- Version-controlled provider adapters
- Keep application logic separate from model-specific interfaces
Realtime Interaction
Voice when voice makes sense. Visual when visual matters.
Nova does not replace the application interface. It adds realtime intelligence to it. Applications can combine voice with screens, video, touch, keyboard input, application state, tools, data, and conventional controls.
That same architecture can power software applications, mobile experiences, games and interactive media, customer-facing agents, laboratory systems, field workflows, and industrial operations.
Deployment
Deploy where your application lives
Use the deployment architecture appropriate to the application, from managed cloud services to private infrastructure and latency-sensitive edge systems.
Cloud Hosted
Run realtime applications on managed Centerbeam infrastructure with deployment paths designed to scale from development to production.
VM Hosted
Deploy on virtual-machine infrastructure using containerized application and service components.
Private Infrastructure
Run within private infrastructure where networking, data isolation, and deployment control are required.
Hybrid + Edge
Combine cloud and edge services so latency-sensitive or operational workloads can run close to the application.
Enterprise & Operational Infrastructure
Realtime AI with control around the action
Realtime applications may need more than model access. Nova can sit between conversation and controlled application action with standardized events, policy layers, logging, identity, deployment controls, and confirm-before-act workflow patterns.
These capabilities are especially important for manufacturing, field service, laboratories, cleanrooms, logistics, healthcare operations, and other demanding environments where voice and hands-free interaction are part of a larger production system.
Standardized realtime events
Versioned provider adapters
Policy and control layers
Model routing
Audit-grade logging
Speaker identification (1:1)
Edge deployment
FAQ
Centerbeam AI Platform
What is the Centerbeam AI platform?
Centerbeam AI provides the realtime infrastructure behind Nova. Nova is a model-neutral realtime voice and multimodal AI SDK, API, and runtime that connects applications, users, tools, state, knowledge, and supported AI models through one application-facing layer.
Is the Centerbeam platform only for voice AI?
No. Voice is an important interaction mode, but the platform is designed for realtime multimodal applications that can combine voice with screens, video, touch, keyboard input, application state, tools, workflows, and conventional software controls.
What does model-neutral mean?
Model-neutral means applications are not designed around a single realtime AI provider. Nova provides a common application-facing architecture across supported providers including OpenAI Realtime, Google Gemini Live, and xAI Grok Voice Agent.
Where can Nova applications run?
Nova is designed for deployment across web, mobile, cloud, virtual machines, private infrastructure, hybrid environments, and edge systems.
Can the platform support industrial and mission-critical applications?
Yes. Industrial and operational environments are an important Nova application category. Centerbeam supports capabilities including audit logging, speaker identification, confirm-before-act patterns, policy controls, private networking, and edge deployment for demanding workflows.
