## Introducing Gaia

Today we’re launching **Gaia**, powered by [**Deepgram Flux**](https://deepgram.com/learn/lindy-gaia-launches-with-deepgram-flux) **, the latest state of the art AI voice model**.  
Gaia brings clarity, speed, and natural flow to AI phone conversations, making it the fastest phone agent in the world. Our benchmarks show it beats the competition by more than 500 milliseconds and significantly improves conversational flow.

Gaia does more than answer calls. It **listens, responds, and takes action** by understanding your business and integrating with the systems where work happens. Businesses are using Gaia today to reduce support costs by 67% without sacrificing quality.

Gaia's integration capabilities extend beyond simple call handling. It seamlessly connects with CRM systems, ensuring that customer interactions are logged and analyzed for continuous improvement. This integration not only enhances customer satisfaction but also provides valuable insights into customer behavior and preferences.

## How customers use Gaia:

- **Executive Assistant** — Your personal assistant with memory, context, and tools. Helps navigate your inbox, manage your calendar, and keep track of your work.
