Voice translator bridge (Telegram → Slack) with GPT-4o-mini + Whisper
How it works This workflow automatically transcribes and translates voice messages from Telegram to Slack, enabling seamless communication between Japanese and English speakers. In our real-world use case, our distributed team often sends short voice updates on Telegram — but most discussion happens on Slack. Before this workflow, we constantly asked: - “Can someone write a summary of that voice message?” - “I can’t understand what was said — is there a transcript?”
