Developer Experience

Build voice features in minutes

Privocio's speech-to-text API is OpenAI-compatible by design. If your app already uses the OpenAI Whisper endpoint, switching to Privocio is a one-line change — same SDK, same request format, better privacy, and fixed pricing that doesn't punish growth.

What slows developers down

Complex ASR integration

Most speech APIs require custom audio preprocessing, format conversion, and error-handling boilerplate before you can ship a single feature.

Unpredictable costs

Per-minute billing means costs scale unpredictably. A traffic spike or batch job can blow your budget overnight.

Vendor lock-in

Proprietary SDKs and non-standard response formats mean migrating to another provider requires rewriting your integration from scratch.

Drop-in replacement

OpenAI-compatible, zero lock-in

Privocio implements the OpenAI audio transcription endpoint spec. Use the official OpenAI SDK in Python or TypeScript — just change the base URL and API key. Your existing code, error handling, and retry logic work without modification.

Start transcribing in one API call

cURL

curl https://api.privocio.com/v1/audio/transcriptions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer pk_your_key" \
  -F file=@meeting.mp3 \
  -F model=whisper-1 \
  -F response_format=json

Python (OpenAI SDK)

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    base_url="https://api.privocio.com/v1",
    api_key="pk_your_key",
)

result = client.audio.transcriptions.create(
    model="whisper-1",
    file=open("meeting.mp3", "rb"),
)
print(result.text)

TypeScript, Go, and Ruby SDKs also supported via the OpenAI client libraries. See full documentation

Everything you need to ship voice features

Streaming SSE

Get transcription results as they arrive via Server-Sent Events. Build real-time UIs, live captions, and voice-driven interfaces with sub-second latency.

Batch mode

Submit large audio files for asynchronous processing. Get a webhook callback when your transcript is ready — ideal for podcast processing, call center archives, and media pipelines.

Webhooks

Configure webhook endpoints to receive transcription results automatically. No polling, no long-lived connections — just HTTP callbacks to your server.

Multiple output modes

Choose Raw for full-fidelity transcripts, Clean for human-readable text, or Agent for structured JSON optimized for LLM consumption.

Integrate with what you already use

OpenAI SDK compatible

Use the official OpenAI Python, TypeScript, or Go client. Change the base URL and you're done — no new dependencies.

Simple API key auth

Authenticate with a single API key. No OAuth flows, no token refresh, no session management — just a Bearer header.

Comprehensive docs

Endpoint references, code examples, SDK guides, and webhook setup instructions — everything in one place.
