Who is SOTA in Speech-to-text?
Nobody yet.

English short-form word error rate on the Hugging Face Open ASR Leaderboard. Lower is better. A tight top of the board does not get a forced crown. As of Oct 14, 2026, Speech-to-text has no model with enough independent evidence for a SOTA crown.

No open-weight model is on the current board. Closed models stay on Overall. A model counts as open when its license or the Epoch notable-model table says so.
