At WWDC 2025, Apple introduced a new API called Speech Analyzer, which enhances speech-to-text capabilities across its platforms. This new API is designed to be faster and more flexible than previous models, supporting long-form and distant audio, such as lectures and meetings. It is already being used in system apps like Notes and FaceTime for features like live captions and call transcription. The Speech Analyzer API allows developers to integrate advanced speech-to-text features into their apps with minimal code, leveraging the power of Swift and running entirely on-device to ensure privacy.
