The best model in the world for transcribing te reo Māori. Kaituhi has been trained on a diverse range of people, from native speakers in the archives to the raukura of our kura kaupapa, to ensure all voices are heard.
Kaituhi particularly understands the ‘Kiwi’ accent and the unique ways we like to talk here in Aotearoa. Many tools struggle with this, so we focused on us and making sure Kaituhi can transcribe our voices sweet as.
Whether speakers are code-switching between Māori and English, from the Deep South or the streets of Kaitāia, Kaituhi will transcribe what they said in the language they said it.
