Is your feature request related to a problem?
Glass currently relies on Gemini Live STT or local Whisper.
Many users would benefit from additional, inexpensive speech-to-text APIs that already provide high-quality realtime transcription.
Describe the solution you’d like
• Add adapter(s) for at least one of the following vendors:
– Tencent Cloud Realtime ASR (wss://asr.cloud.tencent.com/...)
– Aliyun Realtime ASR (wss://nls-gateway.cn-shanghai.aliyuncs.com/...)
– iFlytek RT-ASR
• Keep the public STT interface unchanged (createSTT({ language, callbacks … })), with provider-specific logic placed in new modules.
• Credentials could be supplied via environment variables or packed into a single apiKey string to avoid UI changes.
Describe alternatives you’ve considered
Local Whisper works but is CPU/GPU-heavy and not as cheap as cloud minutes; Gemini Live is great but costs more and offers fewer regional pricing options.
Additional context
– Tencent Cloud docs: https://cloud.tencent.com/document/product/1093/48982
– Aliyun docs: https://help.aliyun.com/document_detail/179272.html
– iFlytek docs: https://www.xfyun.cn/doc/asr/rtasr/API.html
Happy to help with a PR or testing if this aligns with the roadmap.
