Transcribes audio to text with whisper-large-v3. Server-side fetches the audio URL (max 25 MB), relays it to Venice's audio/transcriptions endpoint, and returns the transcript with detected language, duration, and per-segment timestamps when response_format='verbose_json' (default). Also supports raw text, SRT, and VTT outputs. Use it as a speech-to-text or multi-language ASR endpoint with OpenAI Whisper API compatibility.
