The Vook API turns your audio and video into transcripts and gives you the results back as structured text or ready-to-share files. You can run the whole flow with an API key alone.
To help you try the API, accounts without a subscription get one free transcript per day. It counts only when a transcript is delivered.

​
The path

There are two stages: send a file for transcription, then read the result.
1

Authenticate

Mint an API key (see Authentication) and send it as a Bearer token on every request:
2

Transcribe

Upload a file or pass a direct link to one, then start a transcription job. Full walkthroughs in Transcribe from a file and Transcribe from a URL. Poll the job, or receive a webhook when the transcript is ready.
3

Retrieve and export

List your transcriptions, check status, read the transcript text, download an export, and delete what you no longer need. Full walkthrough in Retrieve and export.
