Real-Time Transcriptions for Twilio Video in Public Beta

Real-Time Transcriptions are now available in Public Beta, allowing you to access the transcribed text from participants in your Video Group Rooms and provide on-screen captions for accessibility. You can opt in to transcriptions on a per-Room basis via the REST API or enable it by default on all Rooms via the Twilio Console configuration.   

Real-Time Transcriptions leverages the scale and programmability of the Twilio Communications Platform. You can choose supported languages and speech models, and control when transcriptions start or stop in each Group Room. The feature is available in the latest JavaScript, iOS, and Android SDKs.

To start using Real-Time Transcriptions, upgrade your Video Client SDK and review the detailed setup instructions in our developer documentation.
