90 to 120 minute services · about 4 min each · every week

Transcribe church services in Singapore every week, without a volunteer typing.

A church service recorded in Singapore usually runs 90 to 120 minutes and comes back as text at about 2 minutes per hour of audio, so a 2-hour service takes roughly 4 minutes. The first 20 minutes are free, and thirteen weekly services of 2 hours come to 1,560 minutes, which fits on the $12 pack of 2,000.

What a weekly service needs

The sermon becomes notes, captions and a study guide by Monday.

The whole service, or just the sermon

Send the full recording from the call to worship to the benediction. Chapters mark where the worship set ends and the sermon begins, so the media team can take the sermon text without trimming the file first.

Sermon notes from the brief

The brief states the sermon's thesis and takeaways, and the scripture references, dates and names said from the pulpit are listed separately. The preacher and anyone who leads a segment are named in the summary, key quotes and chapters.

What a quarter of Sundays costs

One 2-hour service is 120 minutes of the $6 pack of 500. Thirteen weekly services are 1,560 minutes, which the $12 pack of 2,000 covers. A church media team that records every week can also use the $19 a month Workspace.

Captions for the service video

SRT and VTT files come from the same run as the text, so the service video on the church's channel can carry captions. Music and congregational singing are not transcribed; the spoken parts are.

Why services go untranscribed

Someone records every Sunday. Nobody has the evening free to type it up.

✗ A volunteer and a keyboard

Typing a sermon from a recording takes most of a weekday evening, every week, and it rarely gets done.

  • Hours of typing for each sermon
  • Sermon notes that arrive a week late
  • No captions on the service video
  • Hunting for a quote in a long video
  • A recording too long for free tools
  • A subscription for a weekly habit

✓ The service as text

Upload each Sunday's recording and the text, chapters and captions come back from one run.

  • A 2-hour service in about 4 minutes
  • First 20 minutes free
  • 13 services on the $12 pack
  • The preacher named in the summary
  • Scripture references collected
  • SRT and VTT for the video

FAQ

Church service recordings, answered.

How long does a 2-hour service take to transcribe?

About 4 minutes, at roughly 2 minutes per audio hour. A 90-minute service takes about 3. The transcript is in your Library when you come back.

What does a quarter of weekly services cost?

Thirteen services of 2 hours each come to 1,560 minutes, which fits on the $12 pack of 2,000 minutes, with 440 minutes left for midweek studies. A single service uses 120 minutes of the $6 pack of 500. The first 20 minutes of a first service are free.

Can we upload the service video, or only audio?

Either. A file can be up to 10 hours or 5 GB, and before the first pack uploads go up to 2 GB. If the service is on YouTube, including a live replay, paste the link instead.

Our services are in English and Mandarin. Does that work?

English, Mandarin, Malay and Tamil are among 99 languages detected automatically. A recording that switches language is detected on its main language, so a service led mostly in English with a translated segment comes back in English; a separate Mandarin service is best sent as its own file.

Should we split the worship set from the sermon?

There is no need. Send the full service and use the chapters to find the sermon. Singing and music are not transcribed, so the text stays on what was said.

What exports do we get, and is the recording private?

You get TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT and JSON from one run. Service recordings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training.
