Google’s new AI transcription edits out your ‘ums’ and ‘ahs’
Google has launched Gemini 3.5 Transcribe, a new AI-powered tool capable of high-accuracy transcription across 85 languages with automatic filler-word removal and custom vocabulary support. The model is currently rolling out to macOS users and Android developers, though Google clarified that other announced live-processing models are not yet available.
Why it matters
This update enhances productivity for professionals by automating tedious transcription cleanup and improving accuracy for specialized industry jargon, signaling a shift toward more polished, AI-assisted voice-to-text workflows.
Google has updated Gemini Audio with new transcription capabilities that automatically detect specialized jargon and more than 85 languages. Gemini 3.5 Transcribe is a new addition to the Gemini family that follows the launch of 3.5 Live Translate, and comes as we’re still waiting for Google to release the Gemini 3.5 Pro model that it promised to roll out in June.
Google says that 3.5 Transcribe “represents a major advancement from our previous transcription model, Chirp 3,” especially regarding multilingual performance and wording error rates. The transcription model allows users to “edit naturally with just your voice,” according to Google, and can automatically format text and remove filler words like “um” and “uh.”
