Debugging checklist

  1. Confirm the API is reachable at https://beta.api.voiceos.com.
  2. Confirm the request is multipart/form-data.
  3. If sending messages, confirm it is a JSON string (not a nested form object).
  4. Confirm languages is "auto", one code, or a JSON array.
  5. Confirm audio file type is supported.
  6. Inspect text in successful responses and compare against the spoken input.
