+### Speech Models
+
+You can create [Gemini text-to-speech](https://docs.cloud.google.com/text-to-speech/docs/gemini-tts)
+models that call the Vertex AI API using the `.speech()` factory method. For more on speech
+generation with the AI SDK see [generateSpeech()](/docs/reference/ai-sdk-core/generate-speech).
+
+```ts
+import { googleVertex } from '@ai-sdk/google-vertex';
+import { generateSpeech } from 'ai';
+
+const result = await generateSpeech({
+  model: googleVertex.speech('gemini-2.5-flash-tts'),
+  text: 'Hello, world!',
+  voice: 'Kore', // Gemini voice name
+});
+```
+
+The `voice` argument accepts one of Gemini's [30 prebuilt voices](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/speech-generation#voices)
+(e.g. `Kore`, `Puck`, `Zephyr`); it defaults to `Kore`. Multi-speaker dialogue is available via
+`providerOptions.googleVertex.multiSpeakerVoiceConfig`.
+
+By default the audio is returned as a playable WAV (Gemini returns raw PCM, which the provider
+wraps). Set `outputFormat: 'pcm'` for the raw signed 16-bit little-endian mono bytes; the sample
+rate is reported in `result.providerMetadata.google.sampleRate`.
+
+#### Speech Model Capabilities

+
+### Transcription Models
+
+You can transcribe audio with Google Cloud Speech-to-Text models using the
+`.transcription()` factory method together with
+[`transcribe()`](/docs/reference/ai-sdk-core/transcribe).
+
+```ts
+import { googleVertex } from '@ai-sdk/google-vertex';
+import { transcribe } from 'ai';
+import { readFile } from 'fs/promises';
+
+const result = await transcribe({
+  model: googleVertex.transcription('chirp_2'),
+  audio: await readFile('audio.wav'),
+});
+```
+
+The provider supports [Chirp](https://docs.cloud.google.com/speech-to-text/docs/models/chirp-3)
+models `chirp_2` and `chirp_3`, plus `telephony` for phone-call audio.
+Speech-to-Text uses standard Google Cloud credentials (OAuth, Application Default
+Credentials, or a service account) and calls the Cloud Speech-to-Text API.
+Express Mode API keys are not supported for transcription models. Set
+`GOOGLE_VERTEX_LOCATION` (or `providerOptions.googleVertex.region`) to a
+Speech-to-Text region. For Chirp, `chirp_2` is available in `us-central1`,
+`europe-west4`, and `asia-southeast1`; `chirp_3` in the `us` and `eu`
+multi-regions. Chirp is not available in the `global` Speech-to-Text location,
+and these regions differ from Vertex AI regions. `telephony` availability
+depends on the selected Speech-to-Text region and language.
+
+The synchronous API transcribes audio up to one minute or 10 MB, whichever is
+reached first. The spoken language is auto-detected by default; pass
+`languageCodes` to restrict it. For `telephony`, pass a supported language code
+such as `['en-US']`.
+
+```ts
+const result = await transcribe({
+  model: googleVertex.transcription('chirp_3'),
+  audio: await readFile('audio.wav'),
+  providerOptions: {
+    googleVertex: {
+      region: 'us',
+      languageCodes: ['en-US'],
+    },
+  },
+});
+```
+
+The following provider options are available:
+
+- **languageCodes** _string[]_
+
+  BCP-47 language codes to recognize, or `['auto']` to detect the spoken
+  language. Defaults to `['auto']`. Multiple explicit language codes require a
+  multi-region Speech-to-Text endpoint such as `us` or `eu`.
+
+- **enableAutomaticPunctuation** _boolean_
+
+  Whether to add punctuation to the transcript. Defaults to `true`.
+
+- **enableWordTimeOffsets** _boolean_
+
+  Whether to include word-level timestamps in `result.segments`. Defaults to
+  `true`. Google notes that enabling word-level timestamps can reduce
+  transcription quality and speed.
+
+- **region** _string_
+
+  The Speech-to-Text region for the request. Defaults to the provider
+  `location`.
+

+  prompt: 'Invent a new holiday and describe its traditions.',
+});
+
+for await (const textPart of result.textStream) {
+  process.stdout.write(textPart);
+}
+```
+
+### Function Calling
+
+Grok models on Vertex support OpenAI-compatible function calling. You can use AI SDK tools as usual:
+
+```ts
+import { googleVertexXai } from '@ai-sdk/google-vertex/xai';
+import { generateText, tool } from 'ai';
+import { z } from 'zod';
+
+const result = await generateText({
+  model: googleVertexXai('xai/grok-4.1-fast-reasoning'),
+  tools: {
+    weather: tool({
+      description: 'Get the weather in a city',
+      inputSchema: z.object({ city: z.string() }),
+      execute: async ({ city }) => `The weather in ${city} is sunny.`,
+    }),
+  },
+  prompt: 'What is the weather in San Francisco?',
+});
+```
+
+### Structured Outputs
+
+Grok models on Vertex support JSON mode and schema-backed structured outputs:
+
+```ts
+import { googleVertexXai } from '@ai-sdk/google-vertex/xai';
+import { generateText, Output } from 'ai';
+import { z } from 'zod';
+
+const result = await generateText({
+  model: googleVertexXai('xai/grok-4.1-fast-reasoning'),
+  output: Output.object({
+    schema: z.object({
+      name: z.string(),
+      date: z.string(),
+      participants: z.array(z.string()),
+    }),
+  }),
+  prompt: 'Alice and Bob are going to a science fair on Friday.',
+});
+```
+
+### Available Models
+
+The following models are available through the Google Vertex xAI provider. You can also pass any valid model ID as a string.
+
+| Model ID                          | Reasoning |
+| --------------------------------- | --------- |
+| `xai/grok-4.20-reasoning`         | Yes       |
+| `xai/grok-4.20-non-reasoning`     | No        |
+| `xai/grok-4.1-fast-reasoning`     | Yes       |
+| `xai/grok-4.1-fast-non-reasoning` | No        |
+
+<Note>
+  Grok reasoning models on Vertex report reasoning token counts in usage
+  metadata. They do not support the `reasoning_effort` request parameter.

+
+## Google Vertex MaaS Provider Usage
+
+The Google Vertex MaaS (Model as a Service) provider offers access to partner and open models hosted on Vertex AI through an OpenAI-compatible Chat Completions API. This includes models from DeepSeek, Qwen, Meta, MiniMax, Moonshot, and OpenAI.
+
+For more information, see the [Vertex AI MaaS documentation](https://cloud.google.com/vertex-ai/generative-ai/docs/maas/use-open-models).
+
+### Provider Instance
+
+You can import the default provider instance `vertexMaas` from `@ai-sdk/google-vertex/maas`:
+
+```typescript
+import { vertexMaas } from '@ai-sdk/google-vertex/maas';
+```
+
+If you need a customized setup, you can import `createVertexMaas` from `@ai-sdk/google-vertex/maas` and create a provider instance with your settings:
+
+```typescript
+import { createVertexMaas } from '@ai-sdk/google-vertex/maas';
+
+const vertexMaas = createVertexMaas({
+  project: 'my-project', // optional
+  location: 'us-east5', // optional, defaults to 'global'
+});
+```
+
+#### Node.js Runtime
+
+For Node.js environments, the Google Vertex MaaS provider supports all standard Google Cloud authentication options through the `google-auth-library`:
+
+```typescript
+import { createVertexMaas } from '@ai-sdk/google-vertex/maas';
+
+const vertexMaas = createVertexMaas({
+  googleAuthOptions: {
+    credentials: {
+      client_email: 'my-email',
+      private_key: 'my-private-key',
+    },
+  },
+});
+```
+
+##### Optional Provider Settings
+
+- **project** _string_
+
+  The Google Cloud project ID. Defaults to the `GOOGLE_VERTEX_PROJECT` environment variable.
+
+- **location** _string_
+
+  The Google Cloud location, e.g. `us-east5` or `global`. Defaults to the `GOOGLE_VERTEX_LOCATION` environment variable. If not set, defaults to `global`.
+
+- **googleAuthOptions** _object_
+
+  Optional. The Authentication options used by the [Google Auth Library](https://github.com/googleapis/google-auth-library-nodejs/).
+
+- **headers** _Resolvable&lt;Record&lt;string, string | undefined&gt;&gt;_
+
+  Headers to include in requests.
+
+- **fetch** _(input: RequestInfo, init?: RequestInit) => Promise&lt;Response&gt;_
+
+  Custom [fetch](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/fetch) implementation.
+
+<a id="google-vertex-maas-edge-runtime"></a>
+
+#### Edge Runtime
+
+For Edge runtimes, import from `@ai-sdk/google-vertex/maas/edge`:
+
+```typescript
+import { vertexMaas } from '@ai-sdk/google-vertex/maas/edge';
+```
+
+```typescript
+import { createVertexMaas } from '@ai-sdk/google-vertex/maas/edge';
+
+const vertexMaas = createVertexMaas({
+  project: 'my-project',
+  location: 'us-east5',
+});
+```
+
+For Edge runtime authentication, set these environment variables:
+
+- `GOOGLE_CLIENT_EMAIL`
+- `GOOGLE_PRIVATE_KEY`
+- `GOOGLE_PRIVATE_KEY_ID` (optional)
+
+### Language Models
+
+You can create models using the provider instance. The first argument is the model ID:
+
+```ts
+import { vertexMaas } from '@ai-sdk/google-vertex/maas';
+import { generateText } from 'ai';
+
+const { text } = await generateText({
+  model: vertexMaas('deepseek-ai/deepseek-v3.2-maas'),
+  prompt: 'Invent a new holiday and describe its traditions.',
+});
+```
+
+Streaming is also supported:
+
+```ts
+import { vertexMaas } from '@ai-sdk/google-vertex/maas';
+import { streamText } from 'ai';
+
+const result = streamText({
+  model: vertexMaas('deepseek-ai/deepseek-v3.2-maas'),
+  prompt: 'Invent a new holiday and describe its traditions.',
+});
+
+for await (const textPart of result.textStream) {
+  process.stdout.write(textPart);
+}
+```
+
