With Speechmatics behind you, you have all the tools you need to deliver an exceptional user experience.

Transcription Modes

Our models are built to deliver in real-time, which means you get the very best performance and fast transcription whether you choose batch or real-time modes.

Batch Transcription

Quickly transcribe large quantities of pre-recorded video or audio files. You can easily set up Speechmatics to process thousands of hours of recordings.

Transcribe your pre-recorded files to get the data you need, when you need it. It’s a great way to extract understanding from your audio at pace and with efficiency.

Real-Time Transcription

We offer low-latency, accurate transcription of live audio streams from meetings, calls, or broadcast events.

You’ll get initial transcriptions in milliseconds, with context-driven accuracy improvements over time. Our real-time transcription uses the same core machine learning models to give you the best accuracy.

Deployment Mode

Deliver for diverse customer needs with support for Cloud and on-prem deployments. Switch seamlessly between the two or combine these modes.

On-Prem Deployment

Meet architecture, security and compliance needs by hosting our API in your own environment. Flexibly combine with Cloud if required.
