- `GLADIA_GET_PRE_RECORDED_JOB` — Get Pre-recorded Job — Tool to retrieve a pre-recorded transcription job's metadata, status, and results by ID. Use when checking the status or retrieving results of a specific pre-recorded job.
- `GLADIA_GET_TRANSCRIPTION_AUDIO_FILE_DEPRECATED` — Get Transcription Audio File (Deprecated) — DEPRECATED - use GET /v2/pre-recorded/{id}/file instead. Download the audio file used for a transcription job. Use when you need to retrieve the original audio file associated with a specific transcription job ID.
- `GLADIA_INITIATE_LIVE_SESSION` — Initiate Live Transcription Session — Initiates a live (real-time) transcription session with Gladia's API.

## How agents use Gladia

Inside a Definable workflow, Gladia is one of the tools the **Distributor specialist** can call. Example coordination patterns:

- **Researcher → Gladia** — the Researcher (GPT-5.5) pulls context from Gladia (records, threads, documents), synthesises findings, and briefs the rest of the team.
- **Writer → Distributor → Gladia** — the Writer (Claude Opus 4.7) drafts copy in brand voice, the Verifier passes it, then the Distributor writes the result into Gladia (create record, post message, draft email).
- **Designer / Engineer → Distributor → Gladia** — the Designer ships an asset or the Engineer ships a code change, the Distributor delivers it via Gladia (attach file, open PR comment, post status).

The Verifier checks every Gladia call. On rate limit, schema drift, or auth refresh it self-heals and retries — the workflow completes without manual intervention.
