For me, Gemini-3.5-Transcribe actually has slightly lower latency. Kudos to Soniox for both paying their competitor and letting them win. But yes, Soniox is much cheaper.
Interesting, I uploaded a voice recording from a meeting I had recorded with a relatively cheap microphone.
Soniox came out really good. OpenAI started getting some things very wrong and even introduced some German. Google did okay but cut off the start by several seconds.
What's Soniox doing (left most) that's making it so good ? It was also the only one that could distinguish between the speakers.
Oh, thanks for pointing me to Soniox. It is really good. Would also pick up the words with different languages, identify and output in the right language.
Looks interesting. It was much faster too, but that I cannot say much since it was on their own website.
