Love this idea. Had this on my list of side projects to build for a while - definitely see the use for this. It's one less thing for a dev team to maintain in-house. What does latency look like on delivering webhooks? From the time you

That's right - most literature does show that encoder-decoder architectures outperform CTC. I think one of the main reasons for this is that CTC assumes the label outputs are conditionally independent of each other, which is a pretty b

One of the main factors for this is probably due to dataset size. Commercial STT models are trained on 10s of thousands of hours of data from real-world data. Even a decent model architecture is going to perform pretty well on that much dat

Those test sets are definitely more real-world than Libri Clean in our experience, but still are not as "dirty" (noise, muffling, cross talk, recording quality, etc.) as we see in production.

Thanks for sharing this! It's awesome to see another independent company tackling STT well. If you guys ever want to try to collaborate, let me know! My email is in my profile.

There are some good open source STT solutions out there like Mozilla's DeepSpeech ( https://github.com/mozilla/DeepSpeech ) that wouldn't be too hard to put behind an API. We also plan to open source more of ou

Dylan from AssemblyAI here. Right now we only support English, but are going to be launching more languages very soon. We are also getting closer to launching a transfer learning API, so you can train your own acoustic models. This _could_

Right, we noticed similar findings. We do automatic punctuation now, and do diarization when there is more than one channel in the audio file. We're launching diarization on single channel audio with multiple speakers very soon. We&#x2

Hi there! Thanks for the support. We were very surprised to see ourselves on HN tonight! We've been working towards a big launch in a few weeks, which is why we don't have the benchmarks ready just yet. But we are comparable to mo

Dylan from AssemblyAI here. Thanks for trying the API! Time to implementation is one thing we’re focusing a lot on. We’re really trying to make it fast to get up and running with Assembly — for example not requiring you to specify any meta

This is very important. We do not store or copy any of the audio data you send to the API. We do not train on any audio data you send to the API. We’re a small company and absolutely believe in security and privacy. We were caught off guard

The way it works right now is that you would upload one of those old speeches or radio shows to the API, and then you'd get back a transcript that includes all the "terms of art" you customized the API to be able to recognize
