Transcribator

Commercial speech-to-text platform with diarization.

Upload audio or video, get accurate transcripts with speaker diarization, timestamps, and editable segments. Backend uses Groq Whisper (free tier covers ecosystem volume); self-hosted Silero stack planned for high-volume customers.

Capabilities

  • Whisper-large-v3 transcription via Groq
  • Speaker diarization and timeline export
  • Multi-format input (mp3, wav, mp4, webm)
  • BullMQ job queue with retry classification
  • Token-based billing with usage caps

What levels mean →

Weakest link

DB schema drift not detected at runtime; a mock provider in tests has masked production outages in the past.

Roadmap to L4

  1. L3 lift — Prisma migration status check at startup; remove mock provider from production code path; structured pino traces.
  2. L4 lift — Groq → self-hosted Silero fallback for outages; hard cost CB per tenant; recovery audit log; output schema validation.
  3. L5 candidate — model routing based on file length and tier (when volume crosses 1000+ transcriptions/day).
