Gradium released two real-time speech translation models, stt-translate and s2s-translate, covering English, French, German, Spanish, and Portuguese across 20 language pairs. The models collapse the standard three-model cascade into two, pairing single-pass transcription-and-translation with a Gradium TTS stage over one duplex WebSocket. Gradium reports a better accuracy-latency tradeoff than gpt-realtime-translate and gemini-3.5-live-translate, plus output voice selection and cloning.

In this tutorial, we build a multilingual ASR and speech translation pipeline with NVIDIA Canary-1B-v2. We load the model on a GPU-enabled runtime, prepare audio into 16 kHz mono, and run English ASR.

We export translated subtitles as an SRT file, test long-form transcription, run batch processing, and benchmark inference speed.
