An API powered by Google's AI technology allows you to accurately convert speech into text. You can accurately caption your content, provide a better user experience with products using voice commands, and gain insight from customer interactions to improve your service. Google's deep learning neural network algorithms are the most advanced in automatic speech recognition (ASR). Speech-to-Text allows for experimentation, creation, management, and customization of custom resources. You can deploy speech recognition wherever you need it, whether it's in the cloud using the API or on-premises using Speech-to-Text O-Prem. You can customize speech recognition to translate domain-specific terms or rare words. Automated conversion of spoken numbers into addresses, years and currencies. Our user interface makes it easy to experiment with your speech audio.

Gemini 3.8 Flash-Lite TTS
Gemini 3.8 Flash-Lite TTS is an expressive text-to-speech model from Google optimized for high-volume, cost-efficient speech generation. It is designed for workloads such as global dubbing, large-scale audio content production, localization, and conversational voice agents. Users can control characteristics such as tone, pacing, emphasis, and expressive nuance to shape how generated speech is delivered. Line-by-line direction allows scripts to include performance instructions and natural speech cues rather than producing uniformly spoken narration. The model supports long-form generation and is designed to preserve voice quality, natural pacing, and character consistency across extended audio. Native two-speaker staging allows developers and creators to generate multi-turn conversations while keeping speakers distinct and maintaining natural turn-taking. Scripted cues can introduce laughs, sighs, gasps, and listening responses such as “mhm” or “yeah” to make dialogue more conversational. Gemini 3.8 Flash-Lite TTS supports more than 100 languages and is designed for multilingual audio experiences at global scale, while generated Gemini Audio output includes SynthID watermarking for transparency. Developers can access the model through Google AI Studio and the Gemini API, with integration into Google Vids and planned API availability through Gemini Enterprise.
