Lecture day · 300 min · about 10 min

Transcribe a 5-hour lecture day and revise from text instead of replaying the whole day.

A 5-hour lecture day is 300 minutes of audio and comes back as timestamped text in about 10 minutes; a phone recording of the day is usually 150 to 300 MB, and a lecture-capture video is commonly 1.5 to 4 GB. Packs start at $4 for 300 minutes, and credits never expire.

For students, tutors and course teams

A block of back-to-back lectures, split into the classes they were.

However the day was recorded

Students often run a phone or a small recorder for a whole teaching day; departments use lecture capture or post to YouTube or a Google Drive folder. Upload the file, or paste the link. Check your institution's rules on recording lectures before you start.

Lectures as chapters

A teaching day with three or four classes comes back with chapters at each change of topic and lecturer, plus breaks marked by the gaps. Jump to the second lecture without scrolling through the first.

Revision material

The brief lists the definitions, dates, formulas and reading the lecturers named, and the questions each class answered. The chat helps with revision: ask what the three causes were, and it answers from the lecture with the timestamp.

Why long teaching days blur

Five hours of lectures, and by evening the first class is a haze.

✗ Notes taken at speed

By the third lecture of the day, concentration slips and notes thin out.

  • Definitions half copied
  • The afternoon class barely noted
  • Five hours of audio to scrub
  • Questions from classmates lost
  • Revision starts from fragments
  • Size limits on long recordings

✓ The day as study text

The recording goes in that evening and returns as chapters, a brief and a chat you can revise with.

  • About 10 minutes for the whole day
  • One chapter per lecture
  • Lecturers named in the summary
  • Definitions and dates listed
  • DOCX or TXT for notes
  • 200 minutes or more left

FAQ

Lecture days: the questions students ask.

How long does a 5-hour lecture day take to transcribe?

About 10 minutes, at roughly 2 minutes per hour of audio. Upload it on the way home and read it when you sit down.

Should I split the day into separate lectures?

It helps if you have the time: one file per lecture gives each class its own brief. A single file of the whole day also works, as long as it stays within 10 hours or 5 GB, and the chapters still separate the classes.

How much does a term cost?

Packs start at $4 for 300 minutes. Six days, 1,800 minutes, fit the $18 pack of 3,000 minutes. One lecture day a week for thirteen weeks, 3,900 minutes, fits the $32 pack of 6,000 minutes. Credits never expire between terms.

My phone file is 280 MB. Can I upload it here?

Yes. The upload box on this page takes files up to 500 MB. A bigger file, such as a lecture-capture video, continues on the main upload page, up to 5 GB with or without a pack.

Does it work for lectures in another language?

Yes. 99 languages are detected automatically, and English technical terms inside another language are handled. A lecture that switches language is detected on its main language.

Can I share the transcript with my study group?

You can export TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT or JSON and share the file. Lectures are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training; check your course's rules before passing on a lecture.
