Technical Implementation ⚙️

AssemblyAI Integration 🔌

I leveraged several powerful features from AssemblyAI's SDK:

  1. Transcription API
const transcript = await assemblyai.transcripts.transcribe({
  audio: fileUrl,
  speaker_labels: true,
  summarization: true,
  summary_model: "conversational",
  summary_type: "bullets",
  sentiment_analysis: true,
});
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  1. LeMUR for Content Generation
// Generate blog post
const { response: blogPostResponse } = await assemblyai.lemur.task({
  transcript_ids: [transcript.id],
  prompt: `Generate a blog post from the transcript in markdown format`,
  final_model: "anthropic/claude-3-5-sonnet",
});

// Generate actionable insights
const { response: insights } = await assemblyai.lemur.task({
  transcript_ids: [transcript.id],
  prompt: `Provide actionable insights from the transcript`,
  final_model: "anthropic/claude-3-5-sonnet",
});
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  1. LeMUR for Interactive Chat
const { response: qas } = await assemblyai.lemur.questionAnswer({
  transcript_ids: [transcriptId],
  final_model: "anthropic/claude-3-5-sonnet",
  questions: [{ question: userMessage, answer_format: "short sentence" }],
});
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Future Enhancements 🚀
