🤖 Integration Examples

Example 1: Using with DeepSeek Models

Since this server follows the standard MCP specification, you can use any DeepSeek-compatible MCP client (like Cursor, Cline, or Roo Code) to combine our transcription with DeepSeek's powerful reasoning.

Just ask your DeepSeek-powered agent:

"Use the FreeAudioToText tool to transcribe /Users/myname/Downloads/board_meeting.m4a. Once it finishes, act as an executive assistant and use your DeepSeek-R1 reasoning to summarize the key decisions and output an action item list."

Example 2: Using with Claude

"I have an interview recording at https://youtube.com/watch?v=xxxx. Can you transcribe it from the URL and give me a detailed speaker-by-speaker outline?"

The agent will automatically:

1. Call transcribe_audio or transcribe_from_url.

2. Poll get_job_status until completion.

3. Retrieve the text via get_transcript and perform the advanced analysis.
