"Deepgram is unparalleled in accuracy and reliability."
What do you like best about Deepgram?

There are two things I particularly like about Deepgram. First, its determinism ensures that transcribing the same voice over on different API calls remains consistent with 99.9% accuracy, even down to the millisecond. I have translated at least 300 to 400 voice overs and have never seen any inconsistency. Every time I send a voice over, I receive the output with the same time stamp. The second thing is that its segment level time stamp feature remains grammatically correct. There are no issues or errors in punctuation and capitalization, and it also does segmentation very well.

What do you dislike about Deepgram?

I didn't find anything in Deepgram that needs improvement, but one feature I would like to see in Deepgram is the ability to set granularity. If we are given the opportunity to set this in API calls or in some other way, so that we can specify how many words we want in a segment. Because sometimes if a sentence is very long, it combines segments of fifteen, twenty, or twenty-five words, which is very, very low. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Real-Time Advantage with Deepgram"
What do you like best about Deepgram?

I used Deepgram for my voice agent project and really appreciate its low latency, streaming reliable transcripts for text-to-speech. It's helpful for real-time voice calls, making the experience feel smooth and natural. I also find it very easy to set up, especially using APIs. Compared to other platforms like Eleven Labs, Deepgram is not less costly but also provides better performance. Deepgram is invaluable when smoothness in real-time calls is a top priority, handling live calls more effectively by instantly converting conversations into text. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Deepgram?

Sometimes the multi-language support doesn't work perfectly. When calling customers who speak Indonesian or Dubai dialects, it doesn't detect their language well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Real-Time Speech to Text with High Accuracy"
What do you like best about Deepgram?

I use Deepgram for building voice-enabled applications and handling speech-to-text in real time. I like that Deepgram has high accuracy for real-time speech-to-text. Smart formatting is great as it makes the output ready to use without extra processing, and keyword boosting is valuable for domain-specific use cases. Deepgram converts audio into text quickly and enables voice features without a complex speech recognition system. The initial setup is easy, straightforward, and based on a simple API key. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Deepgram?

I think no need much more improvement, it's strong but improve cost predictability and deeper customization. Cost - it helps to have usage estimation and alert to track spending in real time. Customization - easy ways to fine-tune models for specific domains. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Deepgram for accurate and fast speech-to-text transcription in my application, which saves time by quickly converting audio into accurate text, reducing manual transcription effort. I like its accuracy and fast processing and how easy the API integration is. Its real-time transcription and reliable performance make it very efficient to use.

"Fast, Accurate, and Seamless Speech-to-Text"
What do you like best about Deepgram?

I have used Deepgram for my Voice Agent software's Speech-To-Text (STT) and I like that it helps solve critical challenges like real-time speech-to-text processing even in noisy areas, and reduces latency for our application. What I really like about Deepgram is that it's fast, accurate, and offers low latency and real-time transcription, which makes it easy for developers to implement. The low latency is particularly beneficial for processing speech in real time, making AI conversations feel natural. The speed and low latency ensure smooth conversations between humans and agents, catching voices quickly and processing them efficiently. The initial setup was straightforward and quick, with very clear documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Deepgram?

Overall working with Deepgram has been great. It should have little improvised where multiple voices or most noisy area, where it will catch the voice the nearest one for better streaming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Deepgram?

I think all things are very excellent but in the multi language support it is not supporting all the languages. I recently tried multi language option `language="multi"` in Deepgram Speech to text service and called an Indonesian customer but when the customer tried to talk in Indonesian language then it is not detecting. So I think it should be improved, rest all the features are very amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fast, Accurate, and Developer-Friendly Speech-to-Text"
What do you like best about Deepgram?

I like Deepgram for its speed, accuracy, and developer-friendly APIs when working with voice data. I appreciate the very low latency and high transcription accuracy, which improve the real-time experience and reduce manual work. The easy API integration is also great for real-time and batch processing. Furthermore, the developer-friendly APIs enhance productivity by making voice feature implementation quick, easy to maintain, scalable, and testable. The initial setup of Deepgram is straightforward, aided by quick account setup, simple SDK installation, easy transcription requests, and helpful documentation. Overall, the cost efficiency and better performance at scale compared to previous tools my team used make Deepgram very appealing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Deepgram?

While Deepgram is a strong platform overall, there are a few areas where it could be improved to better meet expectations like accuracy with heavy accents, noisy environments, or specialized vocabulary, language support and multilingual conversations, and pricing predictability at scale. Additionally, actual speaker identification in multi-speaker conversations could be better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Transforms Audio into Actionable Insights"
What do you like best about Deepgram?

I use Deepgram as more than just a transcription tool; it's my gateway to turning raw audio into intelligence. I like how fast and real-time it is, which makes it really useful for live conversation, not just recordings. I also appreciate that it works well with my development setup and is easy to connect. The initial setup was fairly simple, and overall, it was easy to start using. We switched to Deepgram because it was faster and more accurate than the standard speech-to-text tool we used before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Deepgram?

One thing that could be improved is accuracy with different accents or noisy audio. Also, the setup and fine-tuning can take a bit of time if you are new to it. Better handling of strong accents and background noise would make results more consistent across different real-world situations. Simplify the setup process.

What do you dislike about Deepgram?

Deepgram works very well overall, but I think it could improve in a few areas. For example, expanding support for more languages and improving accuracy in very noisy audio environments would make it even better. Enhancements in speaker detection and some advanced features could also improve the overall experience Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless API Setup with Reliable Transcription"
What do you like best about Deepgram?

I love that Deepgram's API is super easy to set up in just a couple of minutes. I never even go into the UI because the API alone is great. The instant transcription is quick, reliable, and quite accurate, which is essential for my freight brokerage, where we need to call truckers all the time. The fact that it works better than our phone system provider is a big plus. I honestly don't spend any time on it, which is the biggest compliment I could give since it just works. Also, the setup process couldn't be easier—I'd give it a nine out of ten. All I had to do was plug the API key into Claude Code and the whole thing set itself up. Their documentation is really good too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
