Optimize transcription quality and cost
To optimize transcription quality and reduce costs, specify only one source language per STT agent or task. This approach avoids additional language identification fees and provides the most accurate results.
-
Single-language channel
If all users in a channel speak the same language, start one STT agent or task that subscribes to all relevant UIDs.
-
Multi-language channel
If users in a channel speak different languages, start a separate STT agent or task for each source language.
-
Multilingual speaker
If a user speaks multiple languages, creating one STT agent or task per language will not capture their speech effectively. Instead, start a dedicated STT agent or task for that UID to handle language-specific transcription and translation.
