Frequently Asked Questions

Which languages are supported?

Eight in the language menu: English (US), English (UK), Spanish, French, German, Hindi, Mandarin, and Japanese. Accuracy is highest on clear speech in major languages; background noise lowers it.

How accurate is the transcription?

Accuracy varies by engine, microphone, and background noise — there is no fixed percentage. For meetings and interviews, budget 10–15 minutes of cleanup per hour of audio — proper nouns and crosstalk are the usual errors.

What audio formats and lengths?

This tool transcribes live microphone speech, not uploaded files. Speak naturally; longer sessions keep appending to the transcript. For file transcription, use Podcast Transcription or Indian Voice Transcriber.

How private is it?

Recognition runs through your browser's speech service (in Chrome, audio is processed by Google's servers) — never stored by us. Avoid dictating passwords or secrets.
