- What happened
- Google released Gemini 3.5 Transcribe, a speech-to-text model handling real-time streaming and pre-recorded audio with 4.0% and 2.6% word error rates respectively.
- Why it matters
- Developers building voice agents, real-time captioning, or call analytics should evaluate this via Gemini API. Enterprises can access it through Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform.
- Watch out
- Multi-speaker support limited to three speakers experimentally. Custom vocabulary and language switching capabilities require testing in production environments.
