Transcribe audio with a Whisper GPU template

Run an audio transcription workload using persistent input and output files.

Before you start

Choose a compatible Whisper template and a model that fits the GPU. Have permission to process the recording.

Steps

  1. Deploy the template and wait for readiness.
  2. Use the displayed application endpoint if the template provides one, or connect over SSH.
  3. Upload or copy a short audio file into the persistent workspace.
  4. Run the transcription using the command or API documented for the image; choose a model and language appropriate for the recording.
  5. Inspect the transcript for accuracy and save it outside the rental before termination. Delete sensitive recordings when no longer required.

Check the result

A transcript is generated and the application uses the assigned GPU where supported.

Troubleshooting

Poor audio, unsupported formats, or an unsuitable language/model can reduce accuracy. A managed transcription API is a separate product path with its own catalog limits and charges.
