Twilio, used by hundreds of thousands of businesses and more than ten million developers worldwide, can now integrate with our live transcription API. The integration makes it easier for users to natively transcribe any phone call in real time while using Twilio. With transcribed text at your disposal, you'll then be able to analyze, archive, and act upon voice data more effectively.
Below, you’ll find a step-by-step guide on setting up the Twilio integration with Gladia API in JavaScript for free.
Any developer can use this integration to transcribe phone calls in real-time.
If you haven't already, sign up for our Speech-to-Text API at app.gladia.io and obtain your API key.
Voila! The transcription should appear in the server logs now.
🔗 Source GitHub repository is available here.
Feel free to check out the video version of the tutorial for a step-by-step walkthrough with one of our software engineers, Antoine.
We hope you enjoyed this how-to tutorial! Given how much audio data still goes to wasted, we’re always curious to explore the many ways in which transcription tech can be used to remedy that. Let us know if you end up using our API with Twilio, Discord, or other, we’d love to hear from you.
At Gladia, we built an optimized version of Whisper in the form of an API, adapted to real-life professional use cases and distinguished by exceptional accuracy, speed, extended multilingual capabilities and state-of-the-art features, including speaker diarization and word-level timestamps.
Product News
One of the biggest challenges in building Voice AI Agents is response time—users expect natural, real-time conversations, but every millisecond counts. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce the general availability of partials on Gladia’s real-time API, a feature now open to all developers.
Speech-To-Text
Real-time voice AI agents are among the most demanding applications in modern software engineering. Unlike traditional request-response systems, where latency can be measured in hundreds of milliseconds, voice agents must maintain the illusion of natural human conversation.
Speech-To-Text
The large language model sits at the heart of every modern voice agent. Speech-to-text and text-to-speech handle the audio, but the LLM fundamentally determines how intelligent, helpful, and natural your agent feels to users.
