Introducing Keyterms Prompting to Streaming STT: Never miss the words that matter most
Blog post from AssemblyAI
Released on September 11, 2025, Keyterms Prompting is a new feature for streaming Speech-to-Text (STT) technology that enhances transcription accuracy by focusing on critical vocabulary such as product names, people, and industry-specific terms in real-time. This innovation aims to address common challenges in various industries where domain-specific vocabulary often leads to transcription errors, such as misheard orders in food service, incorrect medical appointments, and unsearchable meeting transcriptions. By allowing users to introduce a list of up to 100 custom terms, Keyterms Prompting improves accuracy at a competitive rate of $0.04/hour, which is 67% less than other solutions. This feature integrates easily with existing systems and provides significant improvements in transcription accuracy without the need for complex configurations or retraining models, making it a scalable and cost-effective solution for businesses seeking reliable voice AI interactions.
