Macron sensitivity
Macrons (tohūto) over vowels change meaning and pronunciation: “keke” (cake) vs “kēkē” (armpit). Omitting macrons produces incorrect transcription. Speak AI preserves macrons throughout all output.
Limited ASR training data
Te Reo Māori has a relatively small speaker population (~185,000), meaning less training data than major languages. Speak AI’s models are designed to perform well in this context.
Bilingual Māori-English content
Most Māori speakers are bilingual with English. Conversations frequently switch between languages. Speak AI handles this bilingual reality naturally.

Te Reo Māori transcription in 2026
Te Reo Māori is an official language of Aotearoa New Zealand, spoken by approximately 185,000 people and growing steadily through government-backed revitalization. With legislative mandates requiring Te Reo in government proceedings, education, and media, demand for accurate Māori transcription technology is expanding. Speak AI supports this revitalization with macron-correct transcription and bilingual Māori-English handling.
Supporting Aotearoa’s language goals
New Zealand’s Maihi Karauna (Crown strategy for Māori language) and the Public Service Act 2020 are driving Te Reo adoption across government, education, and media. Speak AI provides the transcription infrastructure to support these goals — from parliamentary sessions to iwi radio to kwalitatief onderzoek and oral history preservation.
