# List Transcribers

> List transcription providers and models.

<span data-api-safety-label="read-only"><Badge color="gray" size="sm" shape="pill">Read only</Badge></span>

<Info>
  **Recommended.** This endpoint is part of the public `/v1` API reference and is the supported path for new integrations. See the [migration guide](/docs/api-reference/v1/migrating-to-v1) for versioning guidance.
</Info>

Returns every speech-to-text transcription engine DialNexa supports. Each entry includes the transcriber's stable `id`, the upstream `provider` (for example Deepgram, AssemblyAI, OpenAI Whisper), the display `name`, and any configuration metadata the engine exposes. Use this endpoint as the source of truth when configuring an agent's transcription settings, the transcriber you choose determines how accurately the agent understands what the caller says, which is especially important for accented speech, technical terminology, and non-English languages.

## When to use this

* **Agent build UIs**: populate the transcriber selector when creating or editing an agent.
* **Latency tuning**: choose between streaming transcribers (lowest first-word latency) and batch transcribers (best accuracy on noisy audio).
* **Language coverage checks**: confirm the transcriber supports the language an agent is configured for.
* **Cost optimization**: switch high-volume use cases to lower-cost engines when accuracy budget allows.

For a single record, use [Get Transcriber Details](/docs/api-reference/v1/transcribers/get). For fallback STT choices, use [List Fallback Transcribers](/docs/api-reference/v1/transcribers/fallback).

## Common providers

| Provider       | Strengths                                                                                         |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Deepgram       | Very low latency, strong accuracy on conversational telephony audio, good Indian-English support. |
| AssemblyAI     | Strong accuracy with built-in PII redaction and topic detection.                                  |
| OpenAI Whisper | Strongest multilingual coverage, higher latency, best for batch or post-call workflows.           |

The exact set of providers and engines available on your workspace evolves over time, use the live response of this endpoint as the source of truth.

## Fallback Transcription

DialNexa exposes [List Fallback Transcribers](/docs/api-reference/v1/transcribers/fallback) for fallback STT choices. To enable fallback STT on an agent, pass `fallback_stt_enabled: true`, `stt_fallback_transcriber_id`, and optionally `stt_fallback_wait_ms` to [Create Agent](/docs/api-reference/v1/agents/create) or [Update Agent](/docs/api-reference/v1/agents/update).

## Errors

* `401 Unauthorized` is returned when the API key is missing or revoked.
