Transforming the spoken word into written chapters
The text discusses the concept of chapters in written works, their origins dating back to antiquity, and their usefulness in organizing information and enhancing readability. It introduces "Chapters," a new feature from Speechmatics that automatically detects natural transition points in spoken content and divides files into distinct chapters with summarized content within each chapter. This makes it easier for users to navigate through long-form media like videos, podcast episodes, audiobooks, lectures, etc., by breaking them down into digestible chunks. The feature is now available through the Speechmatics API and existing customers can sign up for early bird usage at a reduced price.
