Call Summary

• features
• transcription
• database

Today, we added several new features:

• Reusing the same shortcode and database entry for calls with the same call ID to prevent database bloat and ensure consistent values.
• Transcription results now return a JSON object instead of an HTML string, including tags, to-do items, and a summary.
• Updated the link HN web worker to support rendering the summary as either a string or an object with summary, to-dos, and tags fields.
• Transcriptions now include paragraphs instead of a single block of text for better readability.
• Added a script to replay a transcription, hitting the transcription complete worker instead of the recording complete worker, to avoid creating new recordings unnecessarily.

Todo Items

No specific todo items where mentioned in the call.

All right, so we added new features today. First thing we did that was if a call had the same call id, then we did not create a new short code as well as a new database entry. So it just ends up reusing the same shortcode that already exists. This keeps us from bloating the database, and also we get to make sure it's the same values. The short codes map up to the calls themselves.

After that, we added support for the result of the transcription. Result of the transcription returning a JSON object as opposed to an HTML string. This JSON object includes the tags, which are we're asking the LLM to to summarize the transcription in three words. This also includes any to do items as well as the summary. The tags and the to do items are an array of strings, and the summary is just a string itself.

And then we updated the link HN link HN web worker to support either rendering summary is a string, no tags, or rendering it, or the summary being an object and having the summary to Dos and tags fields on that object. We also requested the paragraphs of the transcription as opposed to just the transcription. So instead of a big wall of text, now we're going to actually have paragraphs, which are really good. What else did we do? And then I also added a script that allows us to replay a transcription.

So this will hit the transcription complete worker as opposed to the recording complete worker, and allows us to. If we are, we already have a recording, we don't need to create a new recording. All right, that's it for today. Till next time.
