Description

Gladia n8n nodes

!Gladia n8n Custom Nodes

This is an n8n community node. It lets you use Gladia in your n8n workflows.

Gladia is a speech-to-text API that provides fast and accurate audio transcription powered by AI, with support for 100+ languages, speaker diarization, translation, summarization, and more.

n8n is a fair-code licensed workflow automation platform.
