Transcribe an 8-hour hearing every witness and argument in one record.
An 8-hour hearing is 480 minutes of audio and is transcribed in about 16 minutes, whether you upload the tribunal's audio file, often around 460 MB, or paste a public YouTube or Vimeo replay. Packs start at $4 for 300 minutes, and credits never expire.
A full hearing day
Read back the day's testimony before the next sitting.
Where hearing recordings come from
Administrative tribunals, arbitration panels, planning bodies and regulators often provide the audio on request, and public hearings are frequently streamed to YouTube or Vimeo. Paste a supported link or upload the file; heavy video goes through upload page.
Witness by witness
Chapters start at each witness, each submission and each recess. The brief lists the figures, dates and document references said aloud, and the chat locates where a particular point was conceded, with the timestamp to verify.
Multi-day hearings, priced
Packs start at $4 for 300 minutes, and credits never expire.
Hearing days that overrun
One file holds up to 10 hours or 5 GB, so a hearing that sits past 10 hours goes in as two files split at a recess. A YouTube replay longer than 6 hours starts once a pack is on the account.
Between hearing days
The official transcript is not ready when the closing has to be written.

FAQ
Eight-hour hearings: what to expect.
How long does an 8-hour hearing take to transcribe?
About 16 minutes for 480 minutes of audio, since processing runs near 2 minutes per hour. The proof page shows a 9.31-hour file completed in 1,033 seconds, so a hearing that sits late still arrives as one document the same evening.
What does a hearing cost?
Packs start at $4 for 300 minutes. A three-day hearing is 1,440 minutes on the $18 pack of 3,000; a five-day one is 2,400 minutes on the $18 pack of 3,000 minutes. First-time visitors get a free preview of the opening minutes, and credits never expire.
Is the transcript certified?
No. It is an AI transcript to work from, not a certified or official transcript, and nothing here is legal advice. Where a hearing needs an official record, use the one the tribunal or its reporter provides.
The hearing video is over 2 GB.
Before a pack is on the account, uploads go up to 5 GB, as they do with one. Eight hours of audio alone is around 460 MB, which avoids the question.
Can it handle a hearing in another language?
Language detection is automatic across 99 languages. A hearing with interpreted testimony is detected on its main language, so read the interpreted passages against the audio. Legal and technical terms said clearly are transcribed as spoken; check unusual names against the exhibit list before quoting them.
Formats and privacy for hearing audio?
Choose TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT or JSON. Hearing recordings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training. You can delete the recording and the transcript at any time.
