Cohere is announcing Transcribe, a state-of-the-art automatic speech recognition (ASR) model that is open source and available today for download.
Our objective was straightforward: push the frontier of dedicated ASR model accuracy under practical conditions. The model was trained from scratch with a deliberate focus on minimizing word error rate (WER), while keeping production readiness top-of-mind. In other words, not just a research artifact, but a system designed for everyday use.
