So Universal One is our flagship industry leading model for speech to text and various other speech understanding tasks. So it's about a year long effort that really is the culmination of like the years that we've spent building infrastructure and tooling at assembly to even train large scale speech AI models.

It was trained on about 12 and a half million hours of voice data, multilingual, super wide range of domains and sources of audio data. So it's super robust model.

We're seeing developers use it for extremely high accuracy, low cost, super fast speech to text and speech understanding tasks within their products, within automations, within workflows that they're building at their companies or within their products.

Yeah, so our Playground is a GUI experience over the API that's free. You can just go to it on our website, assemblyai.com slash Playground. You drop in an audio file, you can talk to the Playground. And it's a way to, in a no-code environment, interact with our models, interact with our API to see what our models and what our API can do without having to write any code.

Then once you see what the models can do and you're ready to start building with the API, you can quickly transition to the API docs. Start writing code, start integrating our SDKs into your code to start leveraging our models and all our tech via our SDKs instead.

So I'm the CTO at Superbase. And so I care a lot about the platform, whether it comes to uptime, security, availability, but I'm also extremely passionate about bringing Superbase to more developers.

When I started in my career, AWS was kind of like new and shiny. And it was so cool that you could go to this website and spin up infrastructure. And then they give you all the tools to manage it. You can drop into the console. You can kind of do whatever you want and you pay for it on a usage basis. If you use a little bit, you get a little bit. Use a lot, you pay a lot.

The expectations of developers have raised since then and I think will continue to be raised because I no longer want to manage my own infrastructure. I don't want to drop into the console every time I get an additional 10,000 users on my platform to tweak the knobs and make sure that the service is still up.

Oh, by the way, I've now got to go and make adjustments to the API gateway to allow for a new geography or whatever it is. I don't want to do that stuff. I want to concentrate on building the cool stuff that I imagined the night before.

And I think just giving people the ability to focus on the cool thing you want to build and not have to worry about the infrastructure anymore is kind of the promise of Superbase. That will change in the future as well. Now you have to write your schemas. You shouldn't have to do that in the future again. Just focus on the cool thing that you want to build.
