Gladia has developed a speech-to-text and audio intelligence API designed for integration into virtual meeting platforms to enhance the transcription process by addressing common challenges such as language detection, speaker identification, and latency in multilingual settings. The API offers three language support modes: manual, automatic single language, and automatic multiple languages, each tailored for different meeting scenarios and language dynamics. The transcription can be performed asynchronously for accuracy and cost-efficiency or live for real-time needs, with the option for speaker diarization to accurately assign speech segments to different participants. Gladia's API provides precise word-level timestamps, crucial for generating accurate transcripts and enabling advanced features like sending transcriptions to language models for insights. The company offers a highly optimized version of the Whisper model, distinguished by its accuracy and speed, suitable for professional use cases, and encourages developers to explore their comprehensive API documentation for further integration guidance.
