# Meet Cohere Transcribe Arabic

Today we are releasing [Cohere Transcribe Arabic](/guides/models-transcribe-arabic).

This open-source speech-to-text model is a fine-tune of Cohere Transcribe using Arabic speech data. It
lets Arabic speakers transcribe their voice with unmatched accuracy and support for regional dialects or
speech patterns.

It is currently the most accurate open-source Arabic ASR model available today and is optimized for
production inference and throughput.
