openai/gpt-transcribe

GPT Transcribe is OpenAI's speech-to-text model, released on 2026-07-28 alongside gpt-live-transcribe. It delivers lower word error rates than the GPT-4o transcription family across multilingual benchmarks, and is billed by audio duration rather than tokens, keeping costs predictable for transcription workloads. Accessible via the OpenAI-compatible protocol through Ofox.
