AssemblyAI at HackDuke and HackUMBC

Over a weekend, AssemblyAI sponsored two annual hackathons at Duke University and the University of Maryland. The events saw over 350 participants who built more than 100 projects in under 36 hours. As a sponsor, AssemblyAI provided its Speech-to-Text API for students to use and supported asynchronous transcription and real-time streaming API. Three top projects using the AssemblyAI API were highlighted: YouTube Cleaner, Babel Fish, and AutoNote. These projects utilized Python, Flask Library, Google Translate, Deep-Translator, PyAudio PortAudio Library, TensorFlow, and Twilio's client library to create innovative applications for video editing, live audio translation, and lecture note generation.
