This feature requires Amazon Transcribe, an AWS service that converts speech-to-text for many languages. Visit the Amazon Transcribe website for information and pricing. You pay-as-you-go based on the seconds of audio transcribed per month. Amazon Transcribe Medical, which accurately translates medical speech, is also supported, but only for US English.
