Orchard MCP Server

Speech-to-text for real-world Spanish and Portuguese, as MCP tools.

Orchard is a transcription and speaker-diarization API built for LATAM audio: call centers, phone recordings, meetings, field audio. This server lets any MCP-capable assistant (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, custom agents) transcribe audio conversationally.

Tools

Long audio is handled automatically: the tool enqueues the job, polls until it finishes and returns the final transcript in one call.

Setup

1. Get an API key at orchardrun.com (free tier, no card required).

2. Add the server to your MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orchard": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "orchard-mcp"],
      "env": { "ORCHARD_API_KEY": "ork_..." }
    }
  }
}

For Claude Code:

claude mcp add orchard -e ORCHARD_API_KEY=ork_... -- npx -y orchard-mcp

Example prompts

• "Transcribe /Users/me/call.mp3 and tell me who said what."

• "Transcribe this YouTube interview and summarize each speaker's position."

• "Transcribe meeting.wav with diarization for 3 speakers and give me the action items per person."

• "Get job abc123 as SRT subtitles."

Notes

• Language is auto-detected when omitted; pass language: "es" (or pt, en, ...) to pin it.

• prompt biases the transcriber toward names, brands or domain jargon.

• Set ORCHARD_API_URL to point at a different environment (defaults to https://api.orchardrun.com).
