AudioToText
AudioToText converts audio into text using transcription.
It is separate from full voice channel recording and can be used when your server needs audio messages or files converted into readable text.
🎙️ What AudioToText does
AudioToText takes supported audio input and generates a transcript.
This can help with:
- Accessibility
- Moderation review
- Meeting notes
- Voice message summaries
- Searchable records
⚙️ Configuration
Depending on your server setup, AudioToText may require:
- A channel where audio is processed
- An API key
- A transcription model
- Optional custom transcription endpoint
- Role or channel restrictions
🔌 Custom transcription endpoint
AudioToText can use a custom Whisper-compatible transcription endpoint.
This is useful if you want to use your own provider or self-hosted transcription service.
See Custom AI Model Endpoints for more details.
↔️ Difference from Audio Recording
AudioToText focuses on transcription.
Audio Recording focuses on recording voice channel conversations and can optionally add transcription and summaries.
Use AudioToText when you mainly need audio converted to text. Use Audio Recording when you need to capture a full voice channel session.
💡 Best practices
- Test with short audio first.
- Make sure the file format is supported.
- Use clear audio for better results.
- Avoid using transcription for sensitive private audio unless your server has a clear policy.
- Review transcripts before relying on them for moderation or official notes.
