How this service works

Locus public pay-per-use API

Output

Returns a JSON object with a 'data' field containing the full Deepgram transcription result — including transcript text, optional speaker-labeled segments, sentiment annotations, detected topics, intents, named entities, and/or a summary depending on which flags were enabled — along with payment settlement details and a request status URL.

Example use cases

Customer call sentiment analysis

“I have a recording of a customer support call at https://example.com/support-call.mp3 — can you transcribe it with Deepgram Nova-3 and also detect the sentiment and any intents the customer expressed throughout the call?”

Podcast episode summarization

“Transcribe this podcast episode from https://example.com/podcast-ep42.mp3 using Nova-3, add punctuation and smart formatting, split it into paragraphs, and give me a summary of what was discussed.”

Multilingual interview diarization

“I've got a recorded interview in Spanish at https://example.com/interview-es.mp3 — please transcribe it with Deepgram Nova-3 using language code 'es', turn on speaker diarization so I can tell the interviewer and guest apart, and extract any named entities mentioned.”

When to prefer

Choose this endpoint when you need to transcribe audio from a publicly accessible URL and optionally enrich the transcript with speaker labels, sentiment, topics, intents, named entities, or a summary — all in a single API call. It is particularly well-suited for agents that need rich audio intelligence (not just raw text) and want to pay per-call via USDC x402 without managing Deepgram API keys directly. Prefer it over raw Deepgram access when you want a frictionless, key-free, pay-as-you-go integration.

Side effects

Audio URL is not publicly accessible or returns a non-200 response — transcription fails
Unsupported audio format at the URL — Deepgram returns an error
Invalid language code provided — may fall back to default or error
Payment insufficient or x402 payment flow fails — request not processed
Model name typo or unsupported model string — defaults or errors
Very long audio files may time out or incur higher costs than the base price
