Accuracy, the accents we cover, and the words worth teaching your custom dictionary.

Estimated on clear, single-speaker audio. Recording quality, crosstalk and background noise move this figure further than the language itself does.
Accents and varieties covered
Marathi is not one accent. These are the varieties the model is built to handle, so a regional speaker is not a special case.

Words worth adding to your custom dictionary
Every language has a handful of words any engine has to guess at. In Marathi these are the usual ones. Add them to your custom dictionary once and they come back right in every transcript from then on.
| Commonly guessed | What you meant | Why they collide |
|---|---|---|
| ल | ळ | Marathi keeps a retroflex l that neighbouring languages dropped. |
| आहे | आहेत | Singular and plural verb endings differ by one syllable. |
| Pune | पुणे | English place names arrive mid-sentence in Latin script. |
Getting the best Marathi transcript
Add place names and personal names to your custom dictionary. Marathi proper nouns often arrive mid-sentence in Latin script, and the dictionary settles which script each lands in.
Record interviews one speaker at a time where you can. Marathi keeps sounds its neighbours have dropped, and clean audio is what preserves them.
Common questions about Marathi transcription
Who needs Marathi transcription?
Broadcasters and publishers in Maharashtra, market researchers running studies in western India, state and municipal bodies, and universities conducting Marathi-language fieldwork.
How accurate is Marathi transcription?
We estimate around 95.2% on clear, single-speaker Marathi audio. Recording quality moves that figure further than the language does, so a close microphone and one person speaking at a time is the biggest lever you have. Names, places and industry terms go into your custom dictionary once and come back right in every transcript after that.
Which Marathi accents and dialects are supported?
These varieties: Standard Marathi, Pune, Varhadi, Konkani-influenced. The model is built for all of them, so a recording with several accents in the room is handled the same way as one without.
What is distinctive about Marathi?
Marathi keeps sounds that its Devanagari neighbours have lost, including a retroflex l that Hindi does not use. The model is trained on Marathi rather than on Hindi with a different vocabulary, so those sounds survive into the transcript.
Will Marathi text export correctly?
Yes. Marathi text (Devanagari) comes through every export unchanged: Microsoft Word, PDF, plain text, and SRT, VTT and Avid DS subtitles. Text direction and diacritics survive the round trip, so a transcript opens the way it looked in the editor.
How long does Marathi transcription take?
Most transcriptions are ready in less time than the length of the file. A 60-minute recording is typically processed well under an hour, and you get an email as soon as it is ready.
Can I translate a Marathi transcript?
Yes. Pick a target language and click translate: your Marathi transcript is translated into any of 60+ languages as a full, editable document with word-level timestamps preserved, so you can export subtitles from the translation just as you would from the original.
