What is the Deepgram MCP Server?
Connect your Deepgram account to any AI agent and take full control of your speech-to-text (STT) and text-to-speech (TTS) workflows through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Speech-to-Text (STT) — Dispatch automated transcription requests for remote audio URLs using the lightning-fast Nova-2 model to consume explicit WAV/MP3 web streams
- Text-to-Speech (TTS) — Generate high-fidelity audio from raw text using Aura voices, outputting the exact binary stream footprint natively from your chat
- Usage Monitoring — Analyze specific global bounds hitting
/usageto map literally terabytes of exact API transcription times and TTS byte usage - Project & Key Management — List and create ephemeral Deepgram access boundaries (API keys) and isolate organizational tenants where Audio AI billing is enforced
- Wallet Oversight — Retrieve explicit cloud logging tracing explicit Vault limits and verify direct wallet thresholds to ensure pipelines never drop
- Identity & Invites — Manage developer limits by listing members and sending team invites to specific project UUIDs strictly
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Deepgram API Key (found in the Deepgram Console under Settings > API Keys)
- Start managing your audio AI workflows from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- AI Developers — test STT/TTS models and manage API keys without leaving the development environment
- Product Teams — monitor audio AI usage and verify transcription accuracy in real-time
- Data Engineers — audit transcription volumes and manage project-wide audio pipelines using natural language
- Ops Teams — track wallet balances and manage team access across multiple Deepgram projects

Frequently asked questions
Can my agent transcribe an audio file from a public URL?
Yes. Use the 'transcribe_url' tool. Provide the public URL of the audio file (WAV, MP3, etc.) and specify the model (e.g., 'nova-2'). The agent will dispatch the request to Deepgram and return the transcribed text instantly.
How do I generate speech from text using the agent?
Use the 'speak_text' tool. Provide the text script and the target voice model (e.g., 'aura-asteria-en'). Your agent will trigger the high-fidelity Aura voice engine and return the binary audio stream data.
Can I monitor my remaining project balance via chat?
Absolutely. Use the 'get_balances' tool with your project ID. The agent will retrieve your current wallet thresholds and funding limits directly from Deepgram to ensure your audio pipelines stay active.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
