DuoVox uses AI-powered speech recognition and machine translation to assist communication. Like all transcription and translation tools, results may contain errors and should not be treated as a verbatim or certified record. Accuracy can be affected by background noise, accents, microphone quality, overlapping speech and domain-specific terminology. DuoVox is a communication aid and should not be relied upon for legal, medical, safety-critical, financial or official purposes. Always verify important information independently.
