Today, we’re publicly launching the AirCaps Audio Research Lab.
Real-world audio is 10x harder to understand than the digital world, and voice is far from “solved.”
We’re building fully streaming speech and audio models for the physical world: target speaker extraction, far-field enhancement, diarization, separation, and speech-to-text.
Our models are a step function ahead of leading cloud speech models in the hardest acoustic environments, while running on edge on consumer hardware.

Introducing AirCaps Diarization-v1: the world's most accurate speaker diarization model.
Beats every leading model across 7 popular diarization benchmarks.
61–71% fewer errors than leading cloud ASR providers with built-in diarization (ElevenLabs, AssemblyAI, Meta and Grok). 2.5x fewer than ElevenLabs Scribe v2, the best of them.
12.03% DER vs. 13.21% for DiariZen Large v2 and 13.44% for pyannoteAI Precision-3.
Built for distant mics, noisy rooms and overlapping speech.
Benchmarks, evaluation code & methodology open-sourced. Examples & access:

Introducing A5S V2: SOTA streaming speech-to-text for the real world.
Ranks ahead of eight leading proprietary cloud streaming speech models in a real-world accuracy evaluation derived from four public noisy, multi-talker datasets.
A5S V2 achieves a 26.27% word error rate across the fixed four-corpus evaluation, beating ElevenLabs, Meta, AssemblyAI, OpenAI, xAI, Deepgram, and Google. The closest cloud model, ElevenLabs Scribe v2 Realtime, scored 26.64% WER.
36.7% lower WER than Nemotron. 47.9% lower than Whisper Streaming.
Runs locally on iPhone & MacBook, with 50 ms / 44 ms mean finalization latency in our device trials.
Built for noisy rooms, distant microphones, and overlapping speech.

AirCaps (@tryaircaps) is bringing AI assistance to real-world conversations.
Their software provides live captions, translations, and proactive AI insights on AR glasses. They’ve already processed 15,000 hours of conversations for hundreds of paying customers.
Exciting news: TranscribeGlass is rebranding as AirCaps.
The tech we built for speech over the years can do even more.
Real-time translation. Meeting summaries. Conversation insights.
So we're expanding our vision.
We're building the best smart glasses for conversations.
