Leopard Speech-to-Text
What is speech-to-text?
Speech-to-text (STT), also known as Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and Open-Domain Large Vocabulary Speech Recognition (LVSR), refers to the technology and methodologies that convert voice data into text.
How does on-device speech-to-text differ from cloud-based speech-to-text?
Cloud-based speech-to-text APIs send voice data to vendors’ servers, where the transcription engine resides. On-device voice processing brings voice recognition to where the voice data resides, eliminating all the unnecessary steps related to cloud processing.
What are the benefits of on-device speech-to-text over cloud speech-to-text APIs?
On-device speech-to-text empowers enterprises to retain ownership and control over their data and products. Sending voice data to the cloud has privacy, latency, reliability, and cost implications. On-device speech-to-text overcomes these challenges, bringing control back to enterprises.
Does Leopard Speech-to-Text support real-time transcription?
Leopard Speech-to-Text doesn’t, but Cheetah Streaming Speech-to-Text does. Cheetah is Picovoice’s on-device streaming speech-to-text engine that provides text output in real time.
Can I use Leopard Speech-to-Text in the cloud?
Yes. You can run Leopard Speech-to-Text in the cloud, whether private, public, or hybrid. Picovoice’s on-device voice recognition technology ensures that data doesn’t have to leave the enterprises’ premises regardless of the platform, instead of making the cloud mandatory.
