Voice to text Transcription API 1.0

Now developers can access the same high quality Human or Automated Voice to Text Conversion utilized by VoiceCloud in their own applications.

If you need true accuracy, VoiceCloud’s high quality human Voice to Text is the solution for transcription of addresses, phone numbers, invoice numbers, names and email addresses.

VoiceCloud provides a superior service with 99% accuracy for a reasonable price. We have the infrastructure and flexibility to handle any high-volume transcription needs with the highest quality.



Sending Audio to VoiceCloud

Developers will have access to our API function calls which allows you to submit mp3 or wav files to our system. The audio files you submit to us must be hosted on an http server that can be accessed by our software. Once the API call is made, our servers will fetch the audio file and submit it to our queuing system to be transcribed by our agents. The audio files will be accessible from your VoiceCloud login account including the transcribed text when completed.

Sample Call:

  • http://voicecloudURL/api?action=sendfile
    &username=youruserid
    &devkey=abc123
    &idtype=username
    &fileurl=http://yourserver/file.mp3
    &filetype=mp3
    &callerid=18005551212

    optional
    &metadata=
    &customcallback=

Results:

  • <?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”ISO-8859-1″?>
    <vcapi>
    <action>sendfile</action>
    <transactionuid>4760</transactionuid>
    </vcapi>

The “sendfile” action returns a unique transactionuid number so your system can identify which audio was transcribed when we return the text back to your server.



Receiving Text From VoiceCloud


After the transcription process has completed, the resulting transcribed text and tranactionuid will be submitted to a form on your server as name=value pairs. You will need to supply us ahead of time with the URL to the form on your server. We use a POST method to send this data to your form.
Variables transactionuid (unique ID number for your transcribed audio) transcribed_text
Sample Scripts: Perl script which takes the data and appends it to a text file.
