When to use it
  • •When you need to automate customer service calls with a custom voice AI solution
  • •When you want to build a voice-activated application without relying on third-party services
  • •When you need to transcribe and analyze large volumes of audio data with a high degree of customization
Ready-to-paste prompt
To transcribe an audio file, create a new workflow with a 'Speech-to-Text' node and configure it with the command `stt --model whisper.cpp --audio file.wav --output transcript.txt`
Heads up: Make sure you have Docker and Docker Compose installed on your system before attempting to run Dograh, as it relies on these tools to manage its services
