    Deploy cohere-transcribe-03-2026

    Single-tenant

    Mixpeek has no managed extractor for this model. On a single-tenant deployment you upload the weights and a custom plugin serves them next to the rest of your pipeline.

    Overview

    Cohere Transcribe is a 2B-parameter automatic speech recognition model that ranks #1 on the Open ASR Leaderboard for English. Trained on 500K hours of audio data, it delivers 3x faster real-time processing compared to models of similar accuracy. The model supports 14 languages with strong multilingual performance.

    For multimodal search pipelines, accurate transcription is foundational -- every word in the transcript becomes searchable text. Higher transcription accuracy directly translates to better full-text search over audio and video content.

    Architecture

    Encoder-decoder architecture optimized for streaming and batch ASR. 2B parameters trained on 500K hours of diverse audio. Supports NeMo framework for enterprise deployment.

    How it runs

    Inference INPUT MODEL OUTPUT Audio object cohere-transcribe-03-2026 mp.inference Transcript vector Vector store MVS cohere-transcribe-03-2026 → embeddings, indexed for search
    cohere-transcribe-03-2026 takes audio, and Mixpeek indexes what it emits.

    Mixpeek SDK Integration

    // No extractor parameter takes a Hugging Face model id (checked against
    // GET /v1/discovery/extractors, which returns 13), so cohere-transcribe-03-2026 runs
    // on your side and the output is upserted through POST
    // /v1/namespaces/{namespace_id}/documents/upsert. On Enterprise the other
    // path is to upload the weights instead: POST /v1/namespaces/{id}/models
    // accepts the huggingface format and a custom plugin loads them.
    const res = await fetch(
      "https://api.mixpeek.com/v1/namespaces/ns_your_namespace/documents/upsert",
      {
        method: "POST",
        headers: {
          Authorization: "Bearer API_KEY",
          "Content-Type": "application/json",
        },
        body: JSON.stringify({
          collection_id: "col_your_collection",
          documents: [
            {
              document_id: "asset-00412",
              // The model produces text, so it lands in payload. Give the
              // collection a text vector index and embed that text to make it
              // searchable rather than only filterable.
              payload: { extracted_text: modelOutput, source_key: "archive/2026/asset-00412" },
              vectors: { "text-embedding": embeddingOfModelOutput },
            },
          ],
        }),
      },
    );
    
    // Managed alternative, if this exact model is not the requirement:
    // universal_extractor@v1 runs google/gemini-embedding-2
    // (3072-d) over a bucket, with no inference of your own.
