Deepgram is bringing enterprise-grade speech recognition directly onto PCs powered by Snapdragon® processors. By optimizing Deepgram's Nova-3 speech-to-text model on the Qualcomm® Hexagon™ NPU in the Snapdragon X Series platform, Deepgram is enabling developers and device manufacturers to deliver real-time voice experiences with greater speed, privacy, and reliability, without relying on a cloud connection.

Many voice AI solutions have historically relied on a cloud-based architecture. Before a response could be delivered, each interaction required audio to leave the device, travel to the cloud, be processed somewhere else, and then return. With this approach, delays and privacy concerns are sometimes introduced, which limit where voice AI can realistically be deployed. Deepgram is fundamentally changing that model, enabling speech recognition to happen directly on the device itself. The result is an entirely new world of applications and user experiences that feel like a natural conversation, whether it is running in a vehicle, on an AI PC, inside an XR headset, or at the edge of a network where connectivity cannot be guaranteed.

Nova-3 advances Deepgram's industry-leading accuracy, extending its capabilities to a broader range of real-world enterprise use cases and challenging audio conditions. It is the first voice AI model to offer real-time multilingual transcription, and the first to provide demonstrably effective self-serve customization, enabling instant vocabulary adaptation without model retraining. In Deepgram's benchmark, Nova-3 delivers the lowest word error rate of any model tested.

This effort opens the door to further integrating voice into a new generation of intelligent applications across automotive, mobile, AI PC, XR, industrial edge, IoT, and wearable devices.
