Wit.ai Speech-to-Text from Audio Clips (HTTP Read Binary)

Convert recorded audio clips into text with Wit.ai

This n8n workflow performs speech-to-text on recorded audio clips using Wit.ai. Instead of manually transcribing recordings, you can send binary audio data through an HTTP request and receive the transcribed text—ideal for automating transcription pipelines.

What this workflow does

With the Wit.ai Speech-to-Text integration, the workflow is designed to:

• Send an audio clip to Wit.ai for transcription.
• Read the audio content as binary so it can be transmitted correctly.
• Use HTTP authentication with your Wit.ai credentials.
• Produce speech-to-text output generated by Wit.ai from your audio recordings.

To get started, simply replace your Wit.ai Server Access Token in the Authorization header.

Use cases
