ElevenLabs says its new model keeps your captions in sync
ElevenLabs says every transcript from its Speech to Text tool now passes through Cue, a new forced alignment model. Forced alignment matches each written word to the moment it is spoken, which is what keeps captions in sync.
Long or noisy recordings are where captions usually drift. ElevenLabs says Cue handles a full file in one pass, without chopping it into chunks, and beat the open-source tools it tested. Those results come from the company's own benchmark, not outside testing.
Worth a quick test if you already caption or transcribe with ElevenLabs, since the change applies automatically. If your current caption tool keeps time just fine, this is not a reason to switch.
Your moveIf you caption Reels or podcasts, run one long, noisy clip through ElevenLabs Speech to Text and check whether the words still line up in the final minutes.
