What changed
On November 10, 2026 AssemblyAI launched Vet Mode in beta. You turn it on with one parameter: domain: "veterinary-v1". It works for pre-recorded audio on Universal-3.5 Pro and Universal-2, and for streaming on Universal-3.6 Pro Realtime, Universal-3.5 Pro Realtime and Universal-Streaming.
The same post updates Medical Mode (domain: "medical-v1"). Existing users got that update automatically, and it costs a $0.15 per hour add-on. AssemblyAI reports fewer missed drug names: 30% fewer in English and 62% fewer in Spanish on pre-recorded audio.
