At Speechmatics, the company prioritizes accuracy above all else in its Autonomous Speech Recognition (ASR) engine, focusing on improving it year over year. The team uses self-supervised learning to combine speed and accuracy, reducing manual transcription errors and allowing for more efficient training with large amounts of labeled data. This approach enables the ASR to produce high accuracy levels, even for underrepresented voices such as African American voices, making communication more accessible and bridging cultural gaps. With a singular focus on innovation and accuracy, Speechmatics aims to remove communication barriers and foster a sense of understanding, ultimately leading to a more harmonious existence.
