How to transcribe audio files with your AI

Connect OneAI to your agent to handle audio processing in the background. Once connected, you just provide a URL and let the pipeline work.

Ask AI about this page

Short answer

How can I transcribe audio using my AI?

Give your AI an audio URL and tell it to start a transcription. The agent runs the process in the background and checks the status until the text is ready. You'll get a full transcript to work with.

Transcription outcomes

Where your data lands.

What happens after you trigger the process.

TEXT

Full text transcripts

The AI converts the audio into text. You can then ask your agent to summarize or analyze the content.

STATUS

Real-time tracking

Since processing happens in the background, your AI monitors the task progress. You'll know when the transcription finishes.

HUMAN

Manual review needed

The AI provides the raw text, but you should check it for specific names or technical terms. This ensures the final output is accurate.

DATA

Ready for analysis

Once the text is ready, it's available for your agent to use in other tasks. You can feed it into notes or databases immediately.

The workflow

What your AI does when the audio URL arrives.

The AI handles the heavy lifting so you don't have to wait for files to process locally.

  1. Start the process

    Your agent sends the audio URL to the asynchronous pipeline to begin the conversion.

    run_async_pipeline

  2. Monitor progress

    The AI periodically checks to see if the transcription is finished or still running.

    get_async_task_status

  3. Verify completion

    The agent waits for the status to signal that the text is fully generated.

    get_async_task_status

  4. Deliver text

    Once the background task hits a completed state, the AI retrieves the final transcript for you.

    get_async_task_status

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI transcribe files from my local hard drive?

    No. The AI needs an accessible audio URL to run the pipeline.

  • 02

    Does the AI edit the original audio file?

    No. The tool only reads the audio to create text; it never modifies your source files.

  • 03

    Do I have to wait for the transcription to finish before I can do other things?

    No. Because the process runs as an asynchronous pipeline, your agent handles the waiting in the background.

  • 04

    Can the AI automatically fix typos in the transcript?

    The transcription tool produces the text, but you must ask your agent to perform any cleanup or editing tasks.

  • 05

    How does the AI know when the transcription is done?

    The agent uses a status check tool to monitor the background task until it reaches a completed state.
