Frequently Asked Questions

Docs · Browse all APIs

What is the OpenAI Whisper API used for?

OpenAI Whisper is a speech-to-text api available through SkillBoss. Teams use it to add OpenAI Whisper to apps, automations, and AI agent workflows without managing separate vendor credentials.

How do I call OpenAI Whisper on SkillBoss?

Send a POST request to https://api.skillboss.co/v1/run with "model": "openai/whisper-1" and an "inputs" object. SkillBoss handles auth, billing, and the unified API layer.

Why use SkillBoss instead of the native openai setup?

SkillBoss gives you one API key, pay-as-you-go billing, and a consistent integration flow across many APIs. That reduces setup time and makes the endpoint easier to use in Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and other agents.

Can agents use OpenAI Whisper?

Yes. This page is designed as a discovery surface for both humans and agents: clear capability framing, direct code examples, and a stable canonical URL make it easier to find, evaluate, and invoke.

How do x402 and MPP work for OpenAI Whisper?

SkillBoss exposes machine-friendly payment and execution patterns for supported public APIs. This page shows x402 and MPP guidance so agent tools can understand the billing and invocation surface before they call the endpoint.
