Core Speech Understanding

Voxtral goes far beyond traditional speech recognition to provide deep understanding of audio content. The model processes speech in context, understanding meaning, intent, and extracting valuable insights from spoken content.

High-Accuracy Transcription

Voxtral achieves over 95% transcription accuracy across multiple languages and audio conditions. The model handles:

Clear speech in optimal conditions
Background noise and multiple speakers

Question Answering

One of Voxtral's most powerful features is its ability to answer questions about audio content without requiring full transcription review:

Example: "What were the main action items discussed in this meeting?"

Voxtral can identify and list specific action items, deadlines, and responsible parties mentioned in the audio.

Code-Switching Support

The model handles conversations where speakers switch between languages naturally, maintaining context and accuracy across language boundaries.

Function Calling

Voxtral can convert natural language voice commands into structured function calls, enabling voice-controlled applications:

# Example: Voice command to function call Voice: "Generate a new UUID for me" Output: generate_uuid() → "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000"
