The problem
Live sport is hours of continuous commentary that's gold for clips and highlights but impossible to search after the fact — and, like any live output, it carries a compliance record obligation.
How Whipscribe helps
Whipscribe transcribes your commentary and match audio into timestamped text, so you find the call, cut the clip, and keep a searchable as-broadcast record — fast and private.
Find the call
Search hours of commentary for the moment, the player, or the phrase — no scrubbing the whole match.
Clip with timecodes
Every highlight links to its exact moment, so pulling and captioning clips is fast.
No length cap
Multi-hour continuous commentary is exactly what this handles, timestamped throughout.
Searchable compliance record
Keep an as-broadcast transcript for complaint response and review.
Questions
Can it handle a whole match?
Yes — there is no short length cap; long, continuous broadcasts are exactly the case this is built for.
How do we make clips?
Search for the moment, note the timecode, and cut the clip; export SRT/VTT for captions.
Where is the audio processed?
On private infrastructure with open-source Whisper — nothing sent to a third-party AI service.
Note: Whipscribe is a transcription tool that makes recordings searchable; it complements your recording and retention systems, it does not replace them, and nothing here is legal advice. Confirm your current obligations with your licence conditions and the applicable code.
