# speech-to-text

Transcription and subtitle generation as a first-class skill — the media job agents are asked for most and could not previously do well.

## Install

### Claude Code

```bash
npx skills add elevenlabs/skills --skill speech-to-text
```

## Best for

Turning recorded audio or video into text you can act on: subtitles, meeting notes, or a searchable transcript of a media archive.

## Not ideal for

Confidential audio that cannot leave your infrastructure — it is a hosted API, so the audio is uploaded.

## About

Transcribe audio to text using ElevenLabs Scribe v2. Use when converting audio/video to text, generating subtitles, transcribing meetings, or processing spoken content.

## Compatibility
