Realtime entity detection: Scribe v2 Realtime adds the entity\_detection query option.

Scribe v2 Realtime, the streaming speech-to-text model in [ElevenLabs](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/elevenlabs>), adds an entity\_detection query option. It can be set to detect all entity types, a single type or category, or an array of types and categories, with matches emitted in committed\_transcript\_entities events. Supported categories are listed in ElevenLabs's [entity detection guide](<https://elevenlabs.io/docs/changelog/2026/8/3#speech-to-text>).
