Here we’ll train a speech recognition model to transcribe a phrase that it previously failed to recognize. To do this, we’ll record some audio files and train a model using Deepgram MissionControl — Deepgram’s all-in-one platform for custom training and deploying custom trained speech recognition. To explore custom training with MissionControl, we’ll train our model… Read More »

Getting accurate transcriptions from a high volume of recorded phone calls and meetings can be a costly and downright frustrating experience for companies. That’s why we rebuilt the speech stack from the ground-up, ditching traditional, brittle methods for end-to-end deep learning. Using deep learning through the entire speech-to-text lifecycle allows us to build custom-trained speech… Read More »
