Vercel AI Gateway adds streaming transcription for live captioning
Vercel's AI Gateway now supports streaming transcription, allowing audio to be transcribed in real-time as it's captured. The feature, available in beta via the AI SDK's streamTranscribe function, works with any streaming-capable model like OpenAI's gpt-realtime-whisper. Developers can swap model strings to use alternatives such as xai/grok-stt without changing code.

The update is a practical step for low-latency voice applications, but its impact depends on how well the beta performs under real-world network conditions.
