Transcribe a 10-hour hearing a full day of testimony, timestamped.
A ten-hour hearing is 600 minutes of audio, and it comes back as timestamped text in about 20 minutes, at roughly 2 minutes per audio hour. Packs start at $4 for 300 minutes, and credits never expire.
What a long hearing day becomes
Ten hours of testimony and argument, searchable the same evening.
Right at the one-file limit
A file can be up to 10 hours or 5 GB, so a hearing that sat from morning to evening goes in whole and keeps one running clock. If the record includes a session after the tenth hour, send it as a second file starting where the first ended. A 9.31-hour file finished in 1,033 seconds on the public proof page.
Witness by witness
Chapters follow the order of the day: preliminary matters, each witness in chief, cross-examination, submissions, rulings. Search the text for a name or a phrase, then open the timestamp to hear exactly how it was said.
Where hearing audio comes from
Public hearings by planning boards, regulators and legislative committees are often streamed on YouTube, and that replay link can be pasted on the upload page. A tribunal's audio export or a recorder's file uploads directly. A live-stream replay over six hours starts once a pack is on the account.
A matter of several days
One ten-hour day takes 600 of the 3,000 minutes in the $18 pack. Three hearing days, 1,800 minutes, still fit that pack. Packs start at $4 for 300 minutes, and credits never expire.
Working from the audio
Ten hours of recording is a day's listening before any analysis starts.
✗ A day of audio and a notepad
Notes taken in the room miss the exact words, and finding a passage again means scrubbing through the recording.

FAQ
Ten-hour hearings, the questions that come up.
How long does a 10-hour hearing take to transcribe?
About 20 minutes of processing for the full 600 minutes. If the file is large, the upload takes longer than that, so export the audio only or paste the replay link.
What does a 10-hour hearing cost?
Packs start at $4 for 300 minutes, and credits never expire. The opening minutes are a free preview.
Is this a certified or official transcript?
No. It is an AI transcript with timestamps for working from: outlines, summaries, finding testimony quickly. It is not a certified or official transcript, it does not replace a court reporter, and nothing on this page is legal advice.
The hearing ran past ten hours with the evening session. What do I do?
Split it into two files at a recess. Ten hours is the most one file can hold, together with 5 GB. Keep a note of where the second file starts so citations line up with the original record.
The video of the hearing is 7 GB. Will it go through?
A single file can be at most 5 GB, with or without a pack on the account. Save the audio track instead, roughly 580 MB for ten hours at 128 kbps, or paste the YouTube link if the hearing was streamed.
Which languages and exports are available, and who hears the audio?
99 languages are detected automatically, and an interpreted hearing is detected on its main language. Exports are TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT and JSON. Everything is transcribed on our own servers and never used to train a model.
