Mihir Jadhav - PeerSpot reviewer
Software Engineer at Futurescape Technologies
Voice agents have automated support and now handle customer queries with lower latency
Deepgram has a vast UI and a vast range of models, but there could be a simpler version for creating AI agents rather than providing a full-fledged platform for minimal use cases. It could be multilingual, as in India, there are multiple several languages. If it had support for many more languages, especially regional languages, it would be valuable.

Co-CEO at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
Has accelerated AI experimentation and simplified transition from prototype to production at scale
The Karini team is responsive and continuously innovating. Scaling this responsiveness is critical to meet the rapid development of generative AI technologies. Karini’s Forward-Deployed Engineers provide instant feedback to Karini’s engineers, and the deployment of enhancements or novel developments continues to keep pace with the overall acceptance of our customers. I expect that demand will intensify quickly, and Karini’s capability to provide near-real-time enhancements is critical to our ability to meet that demand.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution's Speech-to-Text conversion feature is really awesome."
"The speed of the solution for transcribing videos is good."
"The most valuable capabilities of Deepgram that I've found so far include low latency, as it offers less than 200 milliseconds, which is not provided by any other text-to-speech models."
"Deepgram is able to handle large volumes of audio data without compromising accuracy."
"The features that I have been using in the tool have been very stable."
"We have tracked a reduction of around 70% in the support cost and direct human interaction for support."
"Deepgram's transcription stands out compared to other solutions primarily due to its speed and accuracy; those are important points for me because not all providers or tools handled Spanish well, but Deepgram adjusted perfectly for that use case, and we also chose 11Labs voice, a South American voice, which worked very well with Deepgram."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its speed of transcription, as it is one of the fastest tools, especially if you compare it to the second fastest solution that you can get, which is 20 times faster, so it is not just a marginally faster product."
"The Karini team understands how to operationalize sophisticated GenAI business solutions at enterprise scale, allowing for rapid experimentation that does not require staffing up with data scientists, machine learning specialists, or AI practitioners."
"Karini GenAI allowed us to achieve our goals to solve a customer problem, deliver value, and provide a successful entry point into our GenAI journey."
 

Cons

"The area of live transcription could be improved. Sometimes, Deepgram's WebSocket is disposed of due to redundancy."
"Regarding improvements for Deepgram, I think the quality of the transcriptions could be enhanced, as the Spanish accent poses challenges, making it harder to transcribe some words, and considering additional accents from Chilean or Argentine speakers could improve the model's performance with local words."
"The solution does not properly identify the number of speakers."
"Deepgram is currently restricted to only the English variants, but it should include other languages, such as German or French."
"I would not recommend Deepgram to other users because it does not properly identify video communication."
"I would like it to be more accurate."
"The traditional Speech-to-Text doesn't understand when the user is done speaking in bot conversations."
"In comparison to Deepgram, I would say that the transcript accuracy offered by other products is much higher."
"Scaling this responsiveness is critical to meet the rapid development of generative AI technologies."
"Karini is still expanding its list of features. As we add new features, additional connections and technologies around AI must be incorporated to ensure we stay current and continue to improve our platform."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When using Deepgram, one needs to pay for the hours or minutes for which the transcription is needed."
"The pricing is moderate."
"Deepgram is a cheap solution."
"The solution’s pricing is cheap."
