ElevenLabs has unveiled Scribe, a cutting-edge Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) model that aims to provide remarkably accurate transcriptions in 99 different languages. This innovative system is tailored to effectively manage a wide range of real-world audio situations, featuring capabilities such as word-level timestamps, speaker identification, and audio-event tagging. In benchmark evaluations like FLEURS and Common Voice, Scribe has outperformed leading models, including Gemini 2.0 Flash, Whisper Large V3, and Deepgram Nova-3, achieving impressive word error rates of 98.7% for Italian and 96.7% for English. Additionally, Scribe shows a significant reduction in errors for languages that have often faced challenges, such as Serbian, Cantonese, and Malayalam, where competing models frequently report error rates above 40%. Furthermore, developers can easily incorporate Scribe into their applications via ElevenLabs' speech-to-text API, which returns structured JSON transcripts enriched with comprehensive annotations. This level of accessibility and performance is set to revolutionize the field of transcription and enhance the user experience across various applications.
