Transcribe Audio and Video to Text

On this page, we dive into audio and video transcription and how you can use it to convert audio and video files to text.

You can transcribe audio and video files using the DevRIFT API. Here, we show you how to do it.

Using a simple cURL request, you can transcribe audio and video files like this:

curl -X POST https://api.devrift.co/v1/transcribe \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer {sk_test_foobar...}" \
  -d "file=https://example.com/audio.mp3"

Using the Python SDK, you can transcribe audio and video files like this:

# Import the DevRIFT SDK
import transcribe from devrift

# Set your API key
transcribe.api_key = "YOUR_API_KEY"

# Make the request
transcription = transcribe(PATH_OR_URL_TO_FILE)
