ElevenLabs, the highly-valued AI voice cloning and generation startup from former Palantir alumni, today launched Scribe v1, a new speech-to-text model that reportedly achieves the highest accuracy across multiple languages. Users can try it here on the ElevenLabs site.According to the company’s benchmarks, it outperforms Google’s Gemini 2.0 Flash, OpenAI’s Whisper v3, and Deepgram Nova-3 on accurately converting spoken speech into text on the web, achieving new record-low error rates.The company claims that Scribe delivers state-of-the-art transcription accuracy in 99 languages, including improved performance in previously underserved languages such as Serbian, Cantonese, and Malayalam. As Flavio Schneider, ElevenLabs Lead Researcher wrote on X, Scribe is the “smartest audio understanding model” released by ElevenLabs yet. “Scribe doesn’t just transcribe — it understands audio,” Schneider continued in a threaded reply

While ElevenLabs cautions that Scribe is “best used when high-accuracy transcription is required rather than real-time transcription,” the company also plans to introduce a low-latency version soon, expanding its use for real-time applications.Lowest word error rates (WER)Scribe is designed to handle real-world audio challenges with precision
