Frequently Asked Questions

Everything about Speech-to-Text API

What is a speech-to-text API?

A speech-to-text (STT) API converts spoken audio into written text. It's used for transcription, voice commands, call center analytics, subtitles, meeting notes, and voice search. Our API provides access to multiple STT providers through a single unified interface.

Which speech-to-text providers do you support?

We support 7+ STT providers: Deepgram (best accuracy for English, lowest latency), Google Chirp (multilingual excellence), Azure Speech (enterprise-grade), ElevenLabs Scribe (Indian languages), AssemblyAI (real-time features), OpenAI Whisper (cost-effective), and Sarvam AI (Hindi specialist). Choose based on language, accuracy, and cost requirements.

What Indian languages are supported for STT?

We support 10 Indian languages: Hindi (हिन्दी), Bengali (বাংলা), Tamil (தமிழ்), Telugu (తెలుగు), Marathi (मराठी), Gujarati (ગુજરાતી), Kannada (ಕನ್ನಡ), Malayalam (മലയാളം), Punjabi (ਪੰਜਾਬੀ), and Assamese (অসমীয়া). ElevenLabs Scribe and Google Chirp provide the best accuracy for Indian languages.

What is real-time vs batch transcription?

Real-time (streaming) transcription processes audio as it's spoken, ideal for live calls and voice assistants. Batch transcription processes pre-recorded files, ideal for meeting recordings and podcasts. Real-time uses WebSocket connections; batch uses REST API file uploads.

How accurate is the speech recognition?

Accuracy varies by provider and language. For English, Deepgram achieves 90-95% word accuracy. For Hindi, Google Chirp achieves 85-90% accuracy. Accuracy improves with custom vocabulary training and domain-specific models. We provide Word Error Rate (WER) metrics for each provider.

What is the latency for real-time STT?

Latency varies by provider: Deepgram achieves <100ms streaming latency, Google Chirp ~200ms, Azure ~150ms. For voice assistants requiring ultra-low latency, we recommend Deepgram or using Gemini Live for native audio processing.

How much does speech-to-text cost?

Pricing is per minute of audio: Deepgram from $0.0042/min, Google Chirp $0.016/min, Azure $0.012/min, ElevenLabs Scribe $0.0067/min, OpenAI Whisper $0.006/min. We offer volume discounts and bundled packages. Use our pricing calculator for estimates.

Do you support speaker diarization?

Yes, several providers support speaker diarization (identifying who said what). Deepgram, AssemblyAI, and Google Chirp provide automatic speaker identification. This is essential for meeting transcription and call center analytics.

Can I train custom vocabulary?

Yes, most providers support custom vocabulary and domain-specific models. You can boost recognition of industry jargon, product names, and company-specific terms. Azure and Deepgram offer the most advanced customization options.

What audio formats are supported?

We support all common audio formats: WAV, MP3, FLAC, OGG, WebM, M4A, and raw PCM. For real-time streaming, we accept 16-bit PCM at 8kHz (telephony) or 16kHz (wideband). Sample rate conversion is handled automatically.
