Google Cloud Speech to Text

Transform voice to text accurately across 125+ languages, real-time, customizable, secure

Google Cloud Speech-to-Text converts audio into text transcriptions for developers who need speech recognition inside their own applications. Rather than a consumer app, it is an API from Google Cloud that you integrate with your product, with documentation, release notes and training material on the site.

The service transcribes uploaded audio files as well as real-time and streaming audio, and it can be used to caption videos. Language coverage is listed as over 125 languages, with 85+ languages and variants cited elsewhere on the page. It can use Chirp 3, Google Cloud's foundation model for speech, which the site says was trained on millions of hours of audio and billions of text sentences and improves recognition across more languages and accents compared with traditional language-specific approaches.

Although this directory files it under music and audio, the product is primarily a transcription API. Pricing is paid: new customers receive a limited amount of free credit to try it and other Google Cloud products before paying. To evaluate it, use the test console on the product page or contact sales for larger deployments.
