Questions about German transcription
Ten minutes of audio on the free tier, no card. Paid plans raise that allowance — Starter to 120 minutes a month and Creator to 600.
MP3, WAV, M4A and MP4 up to 25 MB. Video files are accepted too — the audio track is what gets transcribed.
Timestamps are a toggle rather than an extra step, and a transcript can be downloaded as plain text or as an SRT subtitle file.
Yes. Sentences come back with punctuation and capitalisation already applied, so the text is readable without a clean-up pass.
Commercial usage rights are included on every paid plan, which covers client work, published subtitles and anything you republish.
