MCP Server Whisper
An MCP Server for audio transcription using OpenAI
Overview
MCP Server Whisper is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed for advanced audio transcription and processing using OpenAI's Whisper and GPT-4o models.
To use MCP Server Whisper, clone the repository, set up your environment with the required API key and audio file path, and start the server using the provided commands. You can then interact with the server to manage and transcribe audio files.
- Advanced file searching with regex patterns and metadata filtering. - Parallel batch processing for multiple audio files. - Format conversion between supported audio types. - Automatic compression for oversized files. - Enhanced transcription with specialized prompts. - Comprehensive metadata support including duration and file size. - High-performance caching for repeated operations.
- Transcribing interviews and meetings for documentation.
- Converting audio files to different formats for compatibility.
- Batch processing multiple audio files for efficiency.
- Extracting detailed insights from audio recordings using enhanced transcription.
