Transcribe an AM radio program and quote it to the second.
A 4-hour morning AM radio program recorded off air comes back as text in about 8 minutes, with chapters per segment and the quotes of anchors, guests and callers listed with timestamps. You get the first 20 minutes free, and five weekday programs of 4 hours, 1,200 minutes, fit the $12 pack of 2,000 minutes.
For media monitors, researchers and press officers
When an official says something on morning radio, you need the exact words and the minute.
A brief of the morning's issues
The summary lists the stories the program covered and the takeaways, so a monitor can report the morning in a few lines.
Quotes you can cite
Key quotes keep the anchor's or the guest's exact words with their timestamp. Check them against the audio before you publish.
Segments as chapters
News, commentary, interview, call-in. Chapters mark each block so you can skip to the interview you were asked about.
Speech without the jingles
Music, sound effects and station IDs are not transcribed; the talk is. A 4-hour recording becomes reading, not noise.
Monitoring radio the usual way
Listening back to four hours to find one sentence takes most of a working morning.
✗ Listening and typing
Morning programs run long, switch fast between Tagalog and English, and the remark that matters can come from a caller at any hour. Recording off air is the easy part; going through the audio afterwards is where a monitoring team loses its day.
- One monitor per station per morning
- Quotes paraphrased from memory
- No timestamp to prove when it was said
- Ads and music to scrub past
- Recordings stored with no index
- Reports that arrive after the story has moved on
✓ The same program here
The morning becomes searchable text before lunch, so the report goes out while the issue is still being discussed on the next program.

- Quotes with timestamps
- Chapters per segment

FAQ
AM radio recordings, answered.
How long does a 4-hour program take to transcribe?
About 8 minutes. For a measured example close to that length, the public proof page shows a 4.94-hour file done in 372 seconds.
What does monitoring a station every weekday cost?
One 4-hour program uses 240 minutes, so the $6 pack of 500 minutes covers two. Five weekday programs are 1,200 minutes and fit the $12 pack of 2,000 minutes. Two weeks of programs, 2,400 minutes, belong on the $24 pack of 5,000 minutes.
How large can my off-air recording be?
The cap is 10 hours or 5 GB per off-air file. A 4-hour MP3 at 128 kbps is about 230 MB (128 kbps × 14,400 seconds ÷ 8), well inside the 2 GB that uploads allow before the first pack. If the upload refuses a recorder's file format, convert it to MP3 first and send that.
Do I need to split the program?
No. Even a full broadcast day up to 10 hours is one file. Only a longer recording goes in as two, and the natural cut is at the top of an hour, between programs.
The station broadcasts in Bisaya. Will it work?
Tagalog, Filipino and English are detected automatically, including Taglish. Cebuano, Hiligaynon, Waray and the other regional languages are supported, with accuracy behind the major languages: a fast first draft that needs one review pass.
Can the program's video stream be pasted instead?
A YouTube live replay can be pasted as a link; a replay that only exists on Facebook must be downloaded and uploaded. For a monitoring desk, exports are TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT and JSON, and off-air recordings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training.
