MCP server

Fast Transcriber MCP server

Connect an MCP-compatible AI assistant to hosted or local Fast Transcriber tools.

Choose hosted or local

Hosted Streamable HTTP

Best for public media links. Nothing to install, and the remote server exposes three safe job tools.

Hosted setup

Local stdio package

Adds controlled local-file access and a wait tool. Runs on the same machine as the MCP client.

Local setup

Tools

FieldTypeDescription
transcribe_urlurl, speaker_diarizationQueue one public media URL.
get_transcriptionidGet one job and its completed result.
list_transcriptionslimitList recent jobs for the API account.
transcribe_filepath, speaker_diarizationLocal only: upload and queue an allowed local file.
wait_for_transcriptionid, timeout_secondsLocal only: poll until a job completes or fails.

Authentication

Hosted MCP uses the same Fast Transcriber bearer key as the REST API. OAuth is not currently advertised, so the MCP client must support a custom Authorization header.

Authorization: Bearer ft_live_replace_me
