Transcribe a 6-hour livestream straight from the replay link, no download.
A 6-hour livestream is 360 minutes of audio and is transcribed in about 12 minutes; as a downloaded video the VOD can easily pass 5 GB, so pasting the Twitch, Kick or YouTube replay link is the simple route. Packs start at $4 for 300 minutes, and credits never expire.
For streamers, editors and moderators
Six hours live, turned into text you can search for the moment chat asked about.
A link instead of a 6 GB file
Twitch and Kick VODs, YouTube live replays and Vimeo recordings go in by link, so the video never needs to leave the platform. Streams on other services can be downloaded and uploaded; the box here takes files up to 500 MB, and larger ones continue on the upload page.
The 6-hour line
Stream recordings longer than 6 hours start once a pack is on the account. A broadcast that ran 6 hours and 10 minutes with the starting screen included is past that line, so buy the pack first and paste the link again.
Segments you can find
Chapters mark the opening chat, each game or topic, guest segments and the end-of-stream wrap. The brief lists the names, numbers and dates said on stream and the questions it answers. Gameplay sound and music are not transcribed; the talking is.
A month of streaming
One 6-hour stream uses 360 of the 3,000 minutes in the $18 pack of 3,000 minutes. Packs start at $4 for 300 minutes, and credits never expire.
Why long streams are hard to reuse
Six hours of stream, and the best moment is somewhere after hour four.

FAQ
Long livestreams: what streamers ask.
How long does a 6-hour livestream take to transcribe?
About 12 minutes at roughly 2 minutes per hour of audio, counting from when the VOD has been fetched. The transcript appears in your Library; the tab can close.
Which links work?
Twitch and Kick VODs, YouTube videos and live replays, Vimeo, Google Drive share links and podcast or RSS feeds. For any other platform, download the recording and upload it.
Why did my stream ask for a pack before starting?
Stream recordings over 6 hours start once a pack is on the account. Most 6-hour streams run a few minutes over with the intro screen. The opening minutes are still free to preview for a first-time visitor.
What does a week of streams cost?
Packs start at $4 for 300 minutes. Five 6-hour streams, 1,800 minutes, fit the $18 pack of 3,000 minutes. Credits never expire.
What about a marathon stream longer than 10 hours?
One file or link can be up to 10 hours. A longer marathon needs two parts: download it and upload it in two halves, or use the platform's highlight or clip tools to split it.
Will music and game audio end up in the text?
No. Music, sound effects and crowd noise are not transcribed; the speech is. Commentary over loud game audio is usually fine, though a quiet microphone under loud music may lose words.
