Hello everyone,

I want to make a sort of voicebot using speech\_Recognition library with python. Is that possible ? Thank you !

Hi @Ahmed,

that’s definitely possible. Two ways of doing so would be:

- write a custom input channel which can handle voice and pass it to rasa as text ([Custom Connectors](https://rasa.com/docs/rasa/user-guide/connectors/custom-connectors/))
- have a separate application handling the voice input and then forward the text to one of the existing rasa input channels
