It wraps the Speechmatics API client and integrates it with LiveKit's agent session lifecycle, handling audio streaming, transcription callbacks, and speaker identification.\n\nThe plugin supports multiple turn-detection strategies: external (driven by VAD or manual finalization), adaptive (Speechmatics-controlled), smart turn (ML-based), and fixed silence duration. It can emit speaker identification metadata in configurable formats and accepts custom vocabulary entries for domain-specific terms. Configuration is done through the STT constructor, and the plugin requires a Speechmatics API key at runtime.","worth_installing":"Yes. The package is actively maintained (released 1 day ago), has no known vulnerabilities, low install friction, and Apache-2.0 licensing. Install it if you are building a LiveKit agent and need Speechmatics transcription with speaker diarization or flexible turn detection. Requires Python 3.10+ and a valid Speechmatics API key."},"id":"livekit-plugins-speechmatics","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/livekit-plugins-speechmatics","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/livekit-plugins-speechmatics.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/livekit-plugins-speechmatics/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-13","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"livekit-plugins-speechmatics","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Agent Framework plugin for Speechmatics"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":175173,"position":10269,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.6.10"}
