Transcribe a Hiligaynon radio program and keep an archive you can search.
A 2-hour Hiligaynon radio programme, captured off air or from the station's stream, is transcribed in about 4 minutes, and a 3-hour one in about 6. The first 20 minutes are free, and a week of seven 2-hour programmes, 840 minutes, fits the $12 pack of 2,000 minutes.
For stations, hosts and media researchers
Public affairs radio says things that matter later. A text archive is how you find them later.
The commentary summed up
The brief records the position the host took that day and the takeaways listeners heard, which is quicker to file than an air check.
Listeners' questions, gathered
Questions texted in or asked on the open line come back as a list, each with the timestamp of the answer, useful for a follow-up episode.
A rundown made from the audio
Chapters mark the headlines, interviews, commentary and the public service portion with titles and start times.
File size, worked out
Two hours of mono audio at 64 kbps is about 58 MB (8,000 bytes a second times 7,200 seconds), far below the 5 GB a single file may reach on the upload page.
Why air checks are not enough
An air check proves something was broadcast. It does not tell you where in three hours it was said.
✗ An archive of audio only
Stations and researchers keep hours of Hiligaynon broadcast audio that nobody can search. When a listener disputes what was said, someone has to sit and listen through the whole block.
- Air checks with no index
- A disputed quote found by replay
- Interviews with officials impossible to cite
- Listeners' concerns lost after the show
- Ads and station IDs cluttering any notes
- Researchers transcribing by hand

FAQ
Hiligaynon broadcasts, answered.
How long does a 2-hour Hiligaynon programme take?
Close to 4 minutes, given about 2 minutes of processing per hour. Off-air captures with some static process at the same speed. The public proof page shows a 4.94-hour file done in 372 seconds, so even a long weekend block comes back quickly.
What does a station archive cost to transcribe?
Seven 2-hour programmes are 840 minutes, on the $12 pack of 2,000 minutes. Two 2-hour programmes, 240 minutes, fit the $6 pack of 500. A month of daily 2-hour blocks, about 3,720 minutes, needs the $24 pack of 5,000, and credits never expire. A single 3-hour weekend special uses 180 minutes on its own.
How accurate is the Hiligaynon?
Hiligaynon is supported, but accuracy trails the major languages, so the broadcast comes back as a fast first draft and needs one review pass before a line is quoted; names of towns, barangays and officials are the words most worth checking. English headlines and English interviews come back cleanly.
Can I send a whole day of recorded audio as one file?
A day's recording can go in as one file if it stays within 10 hours or 5 GB, whichever comes first. Anything longer than 10 hours is sent as two files. A file above 2 GB starts once the station has a pack on the account.
What happens to music and ads?
They are not transcribed; the speech is. Song breaks and spot blocks show as gaps, which also marks where each talk segment starts and ends.
Which exports are there, and who hears the recordings?
The station gets five formats: TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT and JSON. Programme audio stays with the station: recordings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training.
