Overview#

The CastingWords API provides programmatic access to a professional transcription service, allowing you to upload audio or video files for transcription, check the status of jobs, and retrieve completed transcripts. This interface streamlines the process of converting spoken content into written text, which can be a boon for content creators, journalists, researchers, and anyone who needs to transform audiovisual media into a textual format. With Pipedream, you can automate interactions with the CastingWords API, integrating transcription tasks seamlessly into your workflows.

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    castingwords: {
      type: "app",
      app: "castingwords",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://castingwords.com/store/API4/prepay_balance`,
      params: {
        api_key: `${this.castingwords.$auth.api_key}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Example Use Cases#

Automated Podcast Transcription Workflow: Trigger a Pipedream workflow with a new podcast episode from an RSS feed. The workflow uploads the audio file to CastingWords for transcription. Once the transcription is complete, it fetches the text and posts it to your blog or website CMS, enhancing podcast accessibility and SEO.
Transcription-Driven Content Syndication: When a new video is uploaded to your YouTube channel, a Pipedream workflow initiates a transcription request to CastingWords. After the transcription, the workflow formats the text into a newsletter and distributes it via SendGrid or another email service, repurposing your video content and engaging your subscriber base.
Customer Support Call Analysis: Record customer support calls and use Pipedream to send them to CastingWords for transcription. The resulting text files are then analyzed for sentiment and keywords using a service like Google Natural Language API, providing insights into customer satisfaction and support effectiveness.
