Transcribe a phone call in real-time using Python with AssemblyAI and Twilio

What's this blog post about?

In this tutorial, a Flask application is built that transcribes phone calls in real-time using Twilio and AssemblyAI. The process involves configuring a user's call to be forwarded to the AssemblyAI transcription service, which sends partial transcripts as they are received. These transcripts are then printed to the terminal. The application is set up with an ngrok tunnel that exposes the Flask app to Twilio without requiring cloud machine provisioning or firewall modifications. The code for this tutorial can be found on GitHub.
