How to transcribe a Korean lecture upload it, or paste the link.
Upload the lecture file or paste its YouTube link: Korean is detected automatically, the English terms professors use inside Korean speech are handled, and a lecture of up to 10 hours or 5 GB comes back in about 2 minutes per audio hour. The opening minutes are a free preview, and a 3-hour lecture is 180 minutes on the $4 pack of 300.
From lecture hall to notes
Get the recording in, then study from the structure, not the audio.
Where the lecture comes from
A phone recording from your seat, a recorder at the front, a class video you are allowed to download from your course site, or a public lecture on YouTube. Paste YouTube, Vimeo or Google Drive links; for a course platform, download the file where downloads are offered (the menu differs between platforms), then upload it.
Korean with English inside
Science, business and engineering lectures in Korean are full of English terms: algorithm, case study, p-value. You do not choose a language; Korean is detected, the transcript is written in Hangul, and the English terms stay in place. That makes a search for a term in the DOCX find every place the professor used it, across the whole semester's files.
Study material, not just text
The brief gives the thesis and takeaways; chapters split the lecture by topic with timestamps; the names, dates and numbers said are listed; and the chat over the transcript answers questions about the lecture. A file up to 500 MB goes in the box here; larger ones continue on the main upload page.
Recordings you may use
Many paid lecture platforms do not allow downloads or recording, so stick to lectures you recorded with permission or files you are allowed to keep. Music, sound effects and room noise are not transcribed; the professor's speech is. Questions from students far from the microphone may come through less clearly than the lecture itself.
Revising from a lecture
Replaying three hours to find one formula is the slow way.
✗ Studying from the audio
What a semester of recordings costs in time when the only way in is pressing play.
- Scrubbing back and forth for one example
- Typing notes at half speed
- English terms misheard as Korean words
- No overview of what was covered
- A file too big for a chat or email
- Splitting long lectures into parts
✓ Studying from the text
What comes back from one upload, ready before you have made a coffee.
- Full lecture in Hangul with timestamps
- English terms kept as spoken
- Chapters by topic for revision
- A brief with takeaways
- Questions answered in the chat
- One file, up to 10 hours

FAQ
Korean lectures: the follow-up questions.
How do I transcribe a Korean lecture?
Upload the recording or paste a YouTube, Vimeo or Google Drive link. Korean is detected automatically, and files go up to 10 hours or 5 GB at about 2 minutes per audio hour.
What does a semester of Korean lectures cost?
Packs start at $4 for 300 minutes, and credits never expire.
Is the transcript in Hangul or romanised?
Hangul, as the lecture was spoken, with English terms kept in Latin letters where the professor said them in English. Formulas and slide content that were never read aloud are not in the transcript, so keep the slides beside it.
My lecture video is over 2 GB. Will it upload?
Yes, up to 5 GB, with or without a pack. A full-day intensive longer than 10 hours goes in as two files.
Can I check a passage against the recording?
Yes. Every passage has a timestamp, so you can jump to that moment in the audio. SRT and VTT exports can also serve as Korean captions on the video, which helps when you rewatch a class at higher speed.
Which exports come with it, and is the lecture private?
TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT and JSON. Lectures are transcribed on our own servers and never used for training.
