AI audio transcription

Hit upload, get the work back.

A finished episode becomes an editable, publishable transcript — speaker-labelled, word-synced, and ready for your feed. And from the same transcript: a summary, social posts and tags. The afternoon of admin, handed back.

After the upload

The episode's done. The work isn't.

A transcript for accessibility and SEO. A summary for the description. A post or two for social. Tags. It's the same routine after every single episode — and it's exactly the kind of repetitive, well-defined work worth handing off.

01 · The workspace

An editor, not a text dump.

Speakers are detected automatically — rename them, or match them to the actual people on your episode roster, and add or remove as needed. Click any paragraph to edit it, Enter splits at the caret, and find-and-replace handles the recurring fixes. The audio player highlights along word by word as it plays.

02 · Under the hood

We sweat the accuracy so you edit less.

Most of the quality happens before a single word is transcribed. The result is fewer of the errors that make AI transcripts a chore to clean up.

Split on silence, not the clock

An ffmpeg pipeline normalises the audio and cuts it on real silence boundaries — so no chunk seam ever lands mid-word.

Hallucinations filtered out

Invented segments are caught and dropped using the model's own decode metrics, before they ever reach your transcript.

Primed on your show

Your show and episode titles prime the vocabulary, so names and terms come through spelled the way you'd write them.

Handles episodes up to 6 hours · 11 languages plus automatic detection.

03 · Publish

Straight into your feed.

One click publishes a WebVTT transcript into your RSS feed as a Podcast 2.0 podcast:transcript — so players like Apple Podcasts show it to listeners. Unpublish whenever you like. Need the file elsewhere? Export to SRT, VTT, plain text or JSON.

04 · Promo assets

The promo writes itself, from the transcript.

The same transcript gives you three title ideas, a short episode summary, a tweet, a LinkedIn post and suggested tags — grounded in what was actually said. Use a title, drop the summary into your description, copy the rest, or regenerate for a fresh set.

A typical episode's promo run costs a few credits from your monthly allowance.

05 · Hands-free

Or never think about it again.

Trigger a transcript per episode with a spoken-language picker and a credit estimate up front — or switch on automatically transcribe new uploads in your podcast settings and forget it. Either way it runs in the background, shows staged progress, and notifies you when it's done.

Common questions

Transcription, answered.

How do I start a transcript?

Two ways: hit "generate transcript" on an episode — you'll pick the spoken language and see a credit estimate first — or switch on "automatically transcribe new uploads" in your podcast settings so every new episode is done for you. Both run in the background and notify you when they're finished.

What languages and episode lengths work?

11 languages plus automatic detection, on episodes up to six hours long.

Can I edit it and fix the speakers?

Yes. Speakers are detected automatically; rename them or match them to people on your episode roster, and add or remove speakers. Click any paragraph to edit, split lines with Enter, use find-and-replace, and save with Ctrl/Cmd+S. A word-synced player highlights along as it plays.

What formats can I export or publish?

Export to SRT, VTT, plain text or JSON. One click also publishes a WebVTT transcript into your RSS feed as a Podcast 2.0 transcript, so apps like Apple Podcasts show it — and you can unpublish any time.

What else can it make from the transcript?

A promo-assets panel generates three title ideas, a short episode summary, a tweet, a LinkedIn post and suggested tags — all from the transcript, and all regenerable.

What does it cost?

About one credit per minute of audio, measured from the actual file with an estimate shown before you start. If a run fails, the credits are refunded. It's available on Creator plans and up.
