Aura Live Documentation

Introduction to Aura Live

Aura Live is a high-performance, real-time transcription (Automatic Speech Recognition) platform built with FastAPI and designed for low-latency live audio processing.

Core Capabilities

Section titled “Core Capabilities”
  • Real-time Transcription: Process audio streams and receive text results with minimal latency.
  • Multilingual Support: Support for a growing list of languages and dialects.
  • WebSocket Protocol: A robust, binary-friendly protocol for streaming audio data.
  • REST API: Comprehensive management of languages, models, and sessions.
  • Extensible Architecture: Built to integrate with various ASR engine backends.

How it Works

Section titled “How it Works”

The typical lifecycle of an Aura Live interaction follows this flow:

  1. Authentication: The client authenticates using an API token.
  2. Discovery: The client queries the REST API to discover available languages and ASR models.
  3. Session Initiation: The client creates a “Live Session” via a REST endpoint.
  4. Streaming: The client connects to a provided WebSocket URI and streams raw audio data.
  5. Result Retrieval: Aura Live sends transcription results back through the same WebSocket connection.

Target Audience
