Interview Transcription
Transcribing interview and identifying speakers...
Usually 30s-3min depending on length.
Built for journalists, researchers + qualitative interviewers
Journalism + writeups
Export the Q&A TXT with timestamps: quote with confidence, cite the exact second, paste straight into your story or newsroom CMS.
Qualitative research
Export JSON for coding in NVivo/Atlas.ti/Dedoose. Every turn has start/end timestamps + speaker labels: ready for thematic analysis.
HR + hiring interviews
Transcribe candidate calls with consent. DOCX export with speaker labels makes it easy to share with the hiring panel.
How interview transcription works
- Drop your recording on the upload zone, MP3/WAV/MP4 up to 1GB. Works with phone interviews.
- Rename Speaker 1 and Speaker 2 to the actual names (or leave defaults).
- Check the quote and click Transcribe. We do 2-speaker diarization automatically.
- Get a clean Q&A transcript. Download TXT/DOCX/SRT/VTT/JSON with your custom speaker names applied.
