OpenAI Audio Transcription, AI Summary & Google Drive Save

This workflow automates the processing of audio files, specifically .m4a recordings from Google Drive, using OpenAI's Whisper for accurate transcription. It triggers automatically on new files, transcribes the audio into text, and generates dual-format outputs: structured JSON reports and readable Markdown documents. The JSON includes key points, action items, sentiment analysis, and a glossary of technical terms, providing deep insights without manual effort.

A key feature is the optional human oversight via email approval, with a 45-minute response window and escalation options, ensuring quality control for sensitive content like meetings or interviews. Post-approval, AI (GPT-4o-mini) analyzes the transcript to create comprehensive summaries, making it ideal for content teams, researchers, and administrators who handle voice memos or discussions.

Finally, it organizes outputs in Google Drive with timestamped naming, sends completion alerts via Email or Telegram, and eliminates manual transcription drudgery. Benefits include time savings, searchable documents, and scalable team collaboration, solving the pain of converting raw audio into actionable intelligence.
