# Discord transcriber bot

This bot listens to utterances in a specified voice channel, sends them to

Google Cloud Speech-To-Text API (which supports

[more than 100 languages and dialects](https://cloud.google.com/speech-to-text/docs/languages)),

and posts the transcription into a text channel.

Thanks to Discord, each user gets their own voice stream, which means this bot

can figure out who said what.

Transcription [costs $0.006](https://cloud.google.com/speech-to-text/pricing)

for each message shorter than 15 seconds.

**Known issue:** This bot somehow stops working after a while. I haven’t figured

out how to fix it yet. If you’ve figured it out, please send a PR. Thanks!!
