Picovoice achieves cloud-level accuracy with tiny Speech-to-Text models, addressing privacy, cost, and reliability problems of the $30 Billion transcription market. Efficient AI models that can run anywhere bring the control back to enterprises and are 10x more cost-effective.

Better

Picovoice Speech-to-Text (STT) is private-by-design and 10x to 22x more cost-effective compared to cloud-based automatic speech recognition APIs. Picovoice on-device STT is intrinsically private and eliminates the cloud costs by bringing compute to data, instead of transmitting data to the cloud.
