In 2017, we launched Amazon Transcribe, an automatic speech recognition service that makes it easy for developers to add a speech-to-text capability to their applications. Since then, we added support for more languages, enabling customers globally to transcribe audio recordings in 31 languages, including 6 in real-time.

Amazon Transcribe is also used by operations team for quality control, for example checking that audio and video are in sync thanks to the timestamps present in the extracted text.

In addition to the examples mentioned above, you can now also easily use Amazon Transcribe to automatically recognize and transcribe voicemails, meetings, and any form of recorded communication. Introducing Automatic Language Identification With a minimum of 30 seconds of audio, Amazon Transcribe can efficiently generate transcripts in the spoken language without wasting time and resources on manual tagging.
