## For AI agents

Programmatically submit audio/video for transcription. Covers 1 operations with apiKey authentication.

## Scope

Does not handle payments, communications, or crm - use for ai and machine learning only.

## Capabilities

- Submit audio/video for transcription
- Manage ai ml data programmatically
- Integrate Speechnotes API into automated workflows
- Query and filter Speechnotes API records by parameters
- Monitor Speechnotes API operational status and events

## Use cases

### AI and Machine Learning Operations

Use the Speechnotes API to perform ai ml operations programmatically. The API provides 1 endpoints covering core functionality including submit audio/video for transcription.

Example prompt: Call POST /transcribe to submit audio/video for transcription

### Data Retrieval and Monitoring

Query Speechnotes API resources on a schedule to track changes, generate alerts, or feed downstream dashboards. Agents poll relevant endpoints, compare against previous state, and trigger actions when thresholds are crossed.

Example prompt: Poll the primary Speechnotes API endpoint, compare response to last known state, and alert if changed

### AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Speechnotes API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey tokens manually.

Example prompt: Search Jentic for 'submit audio/video for transcription', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

## Why Jentic

- **Setup:** Wiring the Speechnotes API by hand means sending your key in the X-API-Key header and constructing the transcribe request yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the Speechnotes API from the API Directory, store the key once, and your agent calls it.
- **Permission scoping:** The Speechnotes API exposes a single transcribe operation with its input in the request body, so limit the agent to the operations it needs, which here is submitting audio for transcription. You choose the operations it may call, so it only does what you allow and nothing more.
- **Credential handling:** Your Speechnotes API key is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
- **Discovery method:** Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'submit audio for transcription', and Jentic returns the matching Speechnotes operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

## FAQ

### What authentication does the Speechnotes API use?

The Speechnotes API uses an API key passed in the `X-API-Key` header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.

### Can I submit audio/video for transcription with the Speechnotes API?

Yes. Use the POST /transcribe endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

### What are the rate limits for the Speechnotes API?

Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.

### How do I submit audio/video for transcription through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'submit audio/video for transcription'. Jentic returns the matching Speechnotes API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

### How many endpoints does the Speechnotes API have?

The Speechnotes API exposes 1 endpoints covering transcription operations.

### Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Speechnotes API?

Yes. The Speechnotes API exposes a single operation, POST /transcribe, which submits audio or video for transcription. Because Jentic One is self-hosted, you decide which operations and credentials your agent may use, so you can allow it to call only /transcribe and nothing else. The stored API key is injected at execution time under your own rules, keeping the agent scoped to exactly the transcription work you permit.
