About Speechmatics
Speechmatics provides speech-to-text APIs that transcribe multilingual audio. It is built for real conversations with accents and several speakers, and it is offered to regulated industries that need strong control over their data.
What it does
The service converts recorded or live speech into text. Developers can call it through an API and receive transcripts, and the company also offers on-device options that run speech recognition locally. Its models are aimed at conversations that mix accents, speakers and languages.
Key features
- Transcription across many languages and accents
- Separation of speakers in multi-person audio
- Live transcription and captions in real time
- On-device recognition that runs locally
- A model built for multilingual medical consultations
Who it's for
Enterprises in regulated fields, including healthcare, that need control over where their data is processed. Contact centres, media companies, captioning providers and developers of voice agents may also find it useful.
Pricing and good to know
The site has a free start option and a contact sales route for larger projects, so cost depends on volume and deployment. The company describes running speech recognition wherever your data lives, which is a deployment choice rather than a single hosted service. The on-device option is aimed at laptop and desktop use.
