How do I transcribe audio to text with speaker labels?

You transcribe audio to text with speaker labels by using a CLI script that processes audio files and outputs structured transcripts with optional speaker diarization. This handles interviews, meetings, and podcasts by labeling who spoke when.

Do I need an OpenAI API key to transcribe audio files?

Yes, you need an OpenAI API key to transcribe audio files. The transcription process requires this key to access the underlying speech-to-text models for generating text and optional speaker diarization.

Can I use known-speaker hints to improve transcription accuracy?
