Short answer

How can I turn audio into text using my AI?

Give your agent a URL pointing to an audio file. It uses the transcription tool to convert the speech into a text format. You'll get a written version of the recording to work with.

The results you get

What transcription produces

The AI handles the listening and typing so you don't have to.

TEXT

Written transcripts

The agent turns the audio into a text block. You can then ask your agent to fix grammar or change the tone.

SEARCH

Findable content

Once the audio is text, your agent can search for specific names, dates, or keywords mentioned in the recording.

HUMAN

Manual verification

You'll need to check the text if the recording is noisy. The AI provides the draft, but you handle the final accuracy check.

NOTES

Meeting summaries

Your agent can take the transcript and pull out action items or key takeaways from a recorded call.

FAQ

How transcription behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI transcribe video files?

    No. This tool only processes audio files provided via a URL.

  • 02

    Does the AI change my original audio file?

    No. The agent only reads the file to create text. It cannot edit or delete your original audio.

  • 03

    What if the audio quality is bad?

    The transcription might be inaccurate if there is a lot of background noise. You should review the output manually.

  • 04

    Do I have to upload files to Vinkius?

    No. You just provide a URL where the audio is already hosted.

  • 05

    Can the AI summarize the transcript?

    Yes. After the transcription is done, you can ask your agent to summarize the text.
