Voice notes

Voice notes¶

Enable transcription so voice notes become normal text runs.

Enable transcription¶

takopi configtoml

takopi config set transports.telegram.voice_transcription true
takopi config set transports.telegram.voice_transcription_model "gpt-4o-mini-transcribe"

# local OpenAI-compatible transcription server (optional)
takopi config set transports.telegram.voice_transcription_base_url "http://localhost:8000/v1"
takopi config set transports.telegram.voice_transcription_api_key "local"

[transports.telegram]
voice_transcription = true
voice_transcription_model = "gpt-4o-mini-transcribe" # optional
voice_transcription_base_url = "http://localhost:8000/v1" # optional
voice_transcription_api_key = "local" # optional

Set OPENAI_API_KEY in your environment (or voice_transcription_api_key in config).

To use a local OpenAI-compatible Whisper server, set voice_transcription_base_url (and voice_transcription_api_key if the server expects one). This keeps engine requests on their own base URL without relying on OPENAI_BASE_URL. If your server requires a specific model name, set voice_transcription_model (for example, whisper-1).

Behavior¶

When you send a voice note, Takopi transcribes it and runs the result as a normal text message. If transcription fails, you’ll get an error message and the run is skipped.
