How do I transcribe audio with Groq?
Short answer: You can groq transcribe audio (whisper) in Groq by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Groq Groq Transcribe Audio (Whisper) action to a workflow, map its 4 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.
Inputs
The fields this action accepts.
Every field can be mapped from an upstream trigger, AI step, table row, or hard-coded literal.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
Audio URL audio_url | string | Required | URL to audio file (mp3/wav/m4a/flac) |
Model model | options | Optional | Model. Options: Whisper Large V3 Turbo (fastest), Whisper Large V3, Distil Whisper Large V3 EN |
Language language | string | Optional | en, es, fr, hi, ... |
Response Format response_format | options | Optional | Response Format. Options: JSON, Verbose JSON, Text … |
Sample request
{"audio_url": "e.g. https://example.com/path","model": "{{trigger.model}}","language": "en, es, fr, hi, ...","response_format": "{{trigger.response_format}}"}
Returns
{"text": "Hello world","x_groq": {"id": "req_abc"},"duration": 3.2,"language": "en"}

FAQ
Questions about Groq Transcribe Audio (Whisper).
What does the Groq Transcribe Audio (Whisper) action do in Groq?
Whisper Large v3 hosted on Groq's LPU hardware — much faster than real-time, very cheap per minute. For high-throughput transcription workflows where speed and cost matter.
What inputs does Groq Transcribe Audio (Whisper) require?
Required: Audio URL. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Groq returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Groq returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does Groq Transcribe Audio (Whisper) support batch operations?
Run Groq Transcribe Audio (Whisper) inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Groq's rate limits.
