Google Gemini 3.5 Transcribe: 85 Languages, Real-Time Slip Correction, 4% WER

Google has unveiled Gemini 3.5 Transcribe, a speech-to-text model that recognizes over 85 languages and automatically removes filler words like 'um' and 'uh' while correcting slips of the tongue in real time. It achieves a 4.0 percent word error rate in streaming mode, with 70 percent lower latency than its predecessor, Chirp 3. Through function calling, the model can hand off tasks to other Gemini models, enabling more complex workflows. This marks a significant leap in transcription accuracy and speed, positioning Google to challenge established players like OpenAI's Whisper and AssemblyAI.

Gemini 3.5 Transcribe Launches: Smarter Speech-to-Text with Context-Aware Accuracy

Google has introduced Gemini 3.5 Transcribe, an upgraded speech-to-text API that leverages Gemini's language understanding to deliver more intelligent transcription. Unlike traditional models, it interprets context, speaker intent, and domain-specific jargon, reducing errors in noisy or technical audio. The service is available via the Gemini API, with pricing starting at $0.006 per second of audio. This marks a shift from simple word-for-word conversion to semantic understanding, enabling real-time summarization and action-item extraction. Early tests show a 30% reduction in word error rate on medical and legal dictation compared to Whisper v3.
