Convert spoken audio into written text instantly using Google's machine learning models to power real-time captions and voice-driven applications.

Live speech-to-text technology processes streaming audio on the fly, delivering accurate text transcripts within milliseconds of a word being spoken. By leveraging deep learning models (such as Google's Chirp or OpenAI's Whisper), the software handles diverse accents, filters out background noise, and automatically applies punctuation. Developers integrate these lightweight APIs into customer service phone lines, live broadcasting booths, and virtual meeting spaces to instantly generate captions, log compliance records, or trigger automated workflows.

## Recent Public Talks and Demos

### [BegooAI: Grounded Q&A for Live Talks](https://lausanne.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_WpDz2xdd3Is)

BegooAI is a presentation companion that turns a live talk into a multilingual Q&A experience. A presenter starts a session, adds optional slide/document context, records the talk, and shares a QR code. Participants join from their phones, ask questions in their own language, and get answers grounded in the live transcript and shared material. The presenter can see audience questions, themes, reactions, feedback, privacy controls, and a live map of the talk. I’ll demo the working system live: presenter setup, QR join flow, transcription, grounded answers, audience analytics, privacy controls, and the live talk map.
