AI teams building realtime assistants that need fast transcription, speaker context, multilingual support, and emotionally adaptive responses
About Inworld Realtime STT
Inworld Realtime STT is a realtime streaming STT API that understands users beyond their words. It combines low-latency speech recognition with voice profiling, extracting emotion, vocal style, accent, age, and pitch directly from raw audio so downstream LLMs and TTS systems can respond with more adaptive, expressive behavior. Developers can stream audio in real time, transcribe complete files, or extract voice profile signals through one unified API, with realtime bidirectional streaming over WebSocket, synchronous transcription for full audio files, voice profile signals on every streaming chunk, and multi-provider support through a single model ID. Every audio chunk can produce a realtime profile of the speaker with confidence scores, giving LLMs structured context such as whether a user sounds sad, frustrated, soft, high-pitched, or calm.

Gemini 3.5 Transcribe
Gemini 3.5 Transcribe is Google’s most precise speech-to-text model yet, designed for intelligent voice interactions and real-time transcription. Instead of simply converting speech word for word, it turns raw audio into accurate, polished, formatted text while handling background noise, complex jargon, accents, dialects, and natural speaking patterns. Smart transcription automatically understands self-corrections, removes filler words such as “ums” and “ahs,” and formats the final text for readability. The model supports continuous bidirectional streaming with sub-second latency for interactive voice applications, as well as pre-recorded audio processing for meetings, call logs, and other recordings with speaker attribution and word-level timestamps. Custom vocabulary helps it recognize specialized terminology, unique spellings, postal codes, order IDs, and other domain-specific language.

Inworld TTS
Inworld TTS is a state-of-the-art text-to-speech platform designed to deliver ultra-realistic, context-aware speech synthesis and precise voice-cloning capabilities at a radically accessible price. The flagship model, TTS-1, is optimized for real-time applications and supports low-latency streaming (first audio chunk in ≈200 ms) as well as multiple languages (including English, Spanish, French, Korean, Chinese, and more). Developers can use instant zero-shot voice cloning (5-15 seconds of audio) or professional fine-tuned cloning, add voice-tags for emotion, style, and non-verbal sounds, and switch languages while preserving voice identity. The larger TTS-1-Max model (in preview) offers even more expressive speech and multilingual strength. The platform supports both API and portal access, streaming or batch mode, and is designed for everything from interactive voice agents and gaming characters to branded audio experiences.

Muse Voice Transcribe
Muse Voice Transcribe is Meta’s first real-time audio perception model, delivering streaming automatic speech recognition (ASR), diarization, and endpointing in real time. An autoregressive multimodal model from the Muse Spark family, it processes audio in 80 ms chunks and decides dynamically whether to continue listening or emit text. Its adaptive delay changes the amount of audio context used for each word based on difficulty, balancing transcription accuracy with latency. The model is trained on more than 70 languages, with 25 extensively verified at launch, and natively supports arbitrary code-switching both within and between sentences. Language, keyword, and context biasing can further improve recognition accuracy for specific names, places, contacts, or terminology. Streaming diarization identifies speaker changes and distinguishes more than 20 speakers, while endpointing detects when speech begins and when a user finishes speaking.
