Frequently Asked Questions

Is audio transcription really free?

Yes — 100% free with no file count limits, no monthly caps, and no watermarks. We run Whisper AI on our own servers so there's no per-minute API cost passed to you.

What audio formats are supported?

MP3, M4A, WAV, OGG, FLAC, OPUS, WMA, AIFF — and even video files like MP4, MKV, MOV and WEBM (the audio track is extracted automatically). Maximum file size is 500 MB.

How accurate is the transcription?

We use OpenAI's Whisper base model which achieves state-of-the-art accuracy on clear speech in English and 90+ other languages. Background noise and heavy accents may reduce accuracy slightly.

What languages are supported?

Whisper auto-detects the language and supports over 90 languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Hindi, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, and many more.

Is my audio file kept private?

Your file is processed entirely on our server — never sent to OpenAI or any third party. The file and transcript are automatically deleted within 1 hour.

What are the chapters in the transcript?

The transcript is split into chapters every 3 minutes with a timestamp, making it easy to navigate long recordings like podcasts, lectures, or interviews.
