Audio Transcript

Record or transcribe audio files directly in Obsidian with speaker diarization — know who said what. Supports Gladia, Deepgram, AssemblyAI, OpenAI Whisper, Groq, and local Whisper.

Quick start

1. Install from Community Plugins → search "Audio Transcript"
2. Enable it in Settings → Community Plugins
3. Open Settings → Audio Transcript, pick a provider, paste your API key
4. Open a note, click the 🎙️ ribbon icon, and record or pick a file

The plugin auto-detects your Obsidian language. No manual language setting needed.

Providers

Providers without diarization produce a single text block. Use Gladia, Deepgram, or AssemblyAI for speaker separation.

Features

• Record or upload — record from your mic or pick audio files (MP3, WAV, WebM, etc.)
• Speaker diarization — automatically labels who spoke when (Gladia, Deepgram, AssemblyAI)
• Batch transcription — queue multiple files at once
• Configurable output — custom templates with {speaker}, {time}, {text} placeholders
• Timestamps with audio links — click a timestamp to jump to that moment in the saved audio
• Callout wrapping — output inside a foldable > [!transcription] block
• Auto language detection — matches your Obsidian UI language (Spanish or English)

How it works

1. Audio is sent to your chosen provider's API
2. The provider transcribes and detects speakers
3. Speaker labels are replaced with the names you provide
4. The transcription is inserted into your active note

Example output:

**Jesús** `0:05`
Buen día, ¿cómo estás?

**María** `0:08`
Muy bien, gracias.

Support

Audio Transcript is free and open source. If it saves you hours of manual transcription, consider buying me a coffee:
