Frequently asked questions
Is academic transcription free?
Yes — you can transcribe the first 5 minutes of any recording with no signup. A free account adds 25-minute files, AI summaries, search, and exports for your research.
Does it separate speakers in an interview or focus group?
Yes. The transcript is automatically split by speaker on a timeline, so each participant's words are clearly attributed — essential for qualitative coding.
Can I export transcripts for Word or coding software?
You can copy the transcript or export to TXT, SRT, and VTT. Plain-text exports import cleanly into Word and most reference and qualitative-analysis tools.
How accurate is it for academic recordings?
On clear audio it's typically 90%+ accurate, and fully editable — so you can fix names, jargon, and technical terms before you quote them.
Is my research data kept private?
Your file is sent for transcription and is not retained on our servers after processing.
