# Speech-to-Text

### Speech-to-Text (STT) Engines

Configure voice recognition capabilities – this allows your virtual being to transform anything they hear into a text that can be further processed by a conversational engine. Supported STT engines: 

* **Azure**
* **Google**
* **NVIDIA Riva**

Each engine can be configured independently, and you can set one as default. Multiple engines provide redundancy and flexibility for different use cases.
