How this service works
Pay-per-use ASR and TTS for AI agents. ASR: send a podcast feed (RSS) or any audio URL, get back a clean timestamped transcript, optionally plus an AI synthesis (thesis, keypoints, verbatim quotes, takeaways). Modes: synthesis or transcript. TTS: text in -> synthesized mp3 out (Kokoro-82M). Exact USDC price quoted in the 402 challenge; pay per job on Base.
Output
Returns a job object with a job_id (UUID) and status field (e.g. 'running'). Once complete, the job delivers a clean timestamped transcript of the audio. In 'synthesis' mode it also includes an AI-generated summary with thesis, key points, verbatim quotes, and actionable takeaways. Price is quoted exactly in the x402 payment challenge before the job is accepted.
Example use cases
Podcast research brief for a journalist
“Pull the last 3 episodes from this RSS feed https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1552180.rss and give me an AI synthesis for each — I need the thesis, key points, and any memorable quotes to pitch a story.”
Raw transcript of a recorded interview
“I have an audio file at https://mycdn.example.com/interview_aug2024.mp3 — just give me the full timestamped transcript, no summary needed.”
Weekly podcast digest for a newsletter
“Grab up to 5 episodes from the RSS feed https://rss.art19.com/how-i-built-this and generate an AI synthesis for each so I can write a weekly roundup with the main ideas and takeaways.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://x402.stan01.xyz/v1/terminal/asrWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need pay-per-use, per-job audio transcription or podcast summarization without a subscription, especially when working with podcast RSS feeds or arbitrary audio URLs. It is the right choice when you want an AI synthesis (thesis, keypoints, quotes) alongside the raw transcript, or when you need to process a batch of recent podcast episodes in a single call. Prefer it over subscription ASR APIs when usage is sporadic and you want exact USDC micro-payment pricing with no monthly commitment.
Side effects
- Invalid or unreachable RSS feed URL returns an error before job is created
- Audio URL is not publicly accessible or returns a non-audio content type
- mode enum value missing or invalid — must be 'synthesis' or 'transcript'
- max_eps exceeds allowed maximum of 10
- Audio duration cannot be estimated from Content-Length and duration_secs is not supplied
- Payment not completed or USDC balance insufficient on Base — job not started
- Job times out for very long audio files
