The example costs $0.0121 per audio minute with the selected tasks. Transcription alone is $0.0001 per minute. Emotion scores describe vocal delivery, not a person’s inner state.

Send audio while it’s being recorded

Preconnect to the WebSocket endpoint, wait for ready, send mono 16 kHz PCM16 frames, and send {"type":"commit"} at the end. Orukeet returns final text after the utterance; it does not emit incremental word hypotheses.

Configure optional tasks before sending audio. With tasks enabled, a transcript event arrives first and final includes the completed task results. Browser applications obtain a short-lived, single-use token from their authenticated backend.
