This sample demonstrates interacting with the Deepgram API from Flask to make transcriptions of prerecorded files. It uses the Deepgram Python SDK, with a javascript client built from web components (no npm requirements).

Deepgram is a foundational AI company providing speech-to-text and language understanding capabilities to make data readable and actionable by human or machines.
