deepgram-rust-audio-intelligence

name	deepgram-rust-audio-intelligence
description	Use when implementing Deepgram audio intelligence from the Rust SDK, especially when intelligence features are attached to STT Options and batch responses instead of a separate audio-intelligence module.

Using Deepgram Audio Intelligence (Rust SDK)

Use this skill when the user wants transcript plus enrichment from audio, not a standalone text analysis request.

When to use this product

• Running summarization, topics, intents, sentiments, entity detection, paragraphs, search, diarization, or utterances against audio.
• Explaining that the Rust crate exposes these features through STT Options, not a separate audio_intelligence module.

Authentication

Audio intelligence rides on the listen feature because it is implemented through prerecorded transcription.

[dependencies]
deepgram = { version = "0.10.0", default-features = false, features = ["listen"] }
tokio = { version = "1", features = ["full"] }

let dg = deepgram::Deepgram::new(std::env::var("DEEPGRAM_API_KEY")?)?;

Quick start

Quick start: prerecorded audio + intelligence flags

use deepgram::{
    common::{
        audio_source::AudioSource,
        options::{Language, Options},
    },
    Deepgram,
};
use tokio::fs::File;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let api_key = std::env::var("DEEPGRAM_API_KEY")?;
    let dg = Deepgram::new(&api_key)?;

    let file = File::open("examples/audio/bueller.wav").await?;
    let source = AudioSource::from_buffer_with_mime_type(file, "audio/wav");

    let options = Options::builder()
        .language(Language::en_US)
        .punctuate(true)
        .detect_entities(true)
        .intents(true)
        .sentiment(true)
        .topics(true)
        .summarize(true)
        .paragraphs(true)
        .utterances(true)
        .diarize(true)
        .build();

    let response = dg.transcription().prerecorded(source, &options).await?;

    println!("transcript: {}", response.results.channels[0].alternatives[0].transcript);
    println!("summary: {:?}", response.results.summary);
    println!("topics: {:?}", response.results.topics);
    println!("intents: {:?}", response.results.intents);
    println!("sentiments: {:?}", response.results.sentiments);
    println!("entities: {:?}", response.results.channels[0].alternatives[0].entities);
    Ok(())
}

Key parameters

• Intelligence flags on common::options::OptionsBuilder: detect_entities, intents, sentiment, topics, summarize, paragraphs, utterances, diarize, search, keywords, keyterms, multichannel.
• Result locations:
  • response.results.summary
  • response.results.topics
  • response.results.intents
  • response.results.sentiments
  • response.results.channels[0].alternatives[0].entities
  • response.results.channels[0].alternatives[0].paragraphs
  • response.results.utterances
  • response.results.channels[0].search

Gotchas

1. No separate Rust module exists. Audio intelligence is expressed as STT options plus prerecorded response fields.
2. Use prerecorded for full coverage. The richest typed results live in common::batch_response; live StreamResponse does not expose the same intelligence objects.
3. Response fields are nested. Some features live on results, others under channels[...].alternatives[...].
4. Feature availability varies by API mode. The crate shares one Options builder, but not every flag is equally meaningful for live streaming.
