Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://api.venice.ai/api/v1/video/transcriptionsWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to convert YouTube video audio into text and want a simple URL-in, transcript-out API with no local infrastructure. Prefer this over general speech-to-text APIs when the source is a YouTube URL rather than an uploaded audio file.
Side effects
- Invalid or inaccessible YouTube URL returns an error
- Video has no audio or only background music — transcript may be empty or inaccurate
- Private or age-restricted YouTube videos may fail to process
- Unsupported video format or non-YouTube URL may return an error
- Insufficient balance returns 402 Payment Required with top-up instructions
- Very long videos may exceed processing limits
