Extract transcript from a video or file URL. For large files, returns a jobId instead of the transcript directly - use supadata_check_transcript_status with that jobId to poll for results.

Part of the Supadata: Web & Video data API for makers MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents call supadata_transcript to retrieve information from Supadata: Web & Video data API for makers without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.
Even though supadata_transcript only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.
Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Extract transcript from a video or file URL. For large files, returns a jobId instead of the transcript directly - use supadata_check_transcript_status with that jobId to poll for results.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Supadata: Web & Video data API for makers MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for supadata_transcript. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Supadata: Web & Video data API for makers MCP server.
supadata_transcript is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the supadata_transcript rule in your Intercept policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for supadata_transcript. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
supadata_transcript is provided by the Supadata: Web & Video data API for makers MCP server (supadata-ai/mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
