Thesis interviews in Hiligaynon · draft for the appendix

Transcribe a Hiligaynon thesis interview and spend your time on the analysis.

Upload a Hiligaynon thesis interview, and a 45-minute recording returns in about 90 seconds as a timestamped draft, with a summary and key quotes you can carry into your results chapter. Hiligaynon is supported but accuracy trails the major languages, so treat it as a fast first draft and plan one review pass against the audio before it goes in the appendix; English answers come back cleanly. The first 20 minutes are free, and ten 45-minute interviews fit the $6 pack of 500 minutes.

For undergraduate and graduate researchers

Your panel wants verbatim transcripts. Your schedule wants them this week.

A draft in the time it takes to label the file

Processing runs near 2 minutes per hour of audio, so a 45-minute interview is ready in about a minute and a half.

Quotes ready for the results chapter

Key quotes come with timestamps and the respondent's name where it was said, which makes them easy to code, cite and anonymise.

Answers matched to your guide

The questions the interview answers are listed with their times, so each respondent's answer to the same item is quick to compare.

Every respondent from one folder

Keep the interviews in a Google Drive folder and paste the folder link; each recording comes back as its own transcript with its own summary. A recording saved as a long video can continue on the upload page.

Transcribing for a thesis

Ten interviews typed by hand is most of a semester.

✗ Typing it yourself

Researchers often type their own interviews, pausing every few seconds and rewinding when two people talk over each other. A 45-minute interview in Hiligaynon can take most of a day, and data analysis waits until every respondent is done.

  • Four to six hours of typing per interview
  • Pausing and rewinding every few seconds
  • Mixed Hiligaynon and English slowing the typing
  • No times to point the panel to a passage
  • Coding delayed until the last transcript is done
  • A defense date that does not move

✓ Starting from a draft

You correct a draft against the audio instead of typing from silence, and the time saved goes into coding and writing.

  • A full draft about 90 seconds after upload
  • A timestamp on every line
  • Key quotes pulled out with the respondent named
  • A summary of each interview's themes
  • Answers listed against your questions
  • DOCX formatted for the appendix

00:12:40 For the next question, how did you start selling online during the pandemic?
00:13:05 My cousin showed me how to post on the group. At first it was only for neighbours.
00:13:48 And when did customers from outside the town start ordering?
00:14:10 Maybe after three months. I had to learn how to ship, that was the hard part.

FAQ

Hiligaynon thesis interview transcription, answered.

How long does one interview take?

About 90 seconds for 45 minutes and about 4 minutes for a 2-hour interview, at roughly 2 minutes per audio hour.

What does a whole thesis worth of interviews cost?

Ten 45-minute interviews are 450 minutes and fit the $6 pack of 500 minutes. Fifteen interviews of 90 minutes, 1,350 minutes, fit the $12 pack of 2,000. Credits never expire, so follow-up interviews after the panel's comments are covered too.

Is the Hiligaynon accurate enough for a verbatim appendix?

Not without your check. Detection picks the main language automatically and English answers come back cleanly, but the Hiligaynon text needs the review pass named above, especially for names and local terms.

Can I upload one long session with several respondents?

Yes. A single file holds up to 10 hours or 5 GB, which is far more than a group interview needs. Until you buy a first pack, an upload can be at most 2 GB, which a 2-hour audio file stays well below.

Are respondents named?

Speakers are identified and named in the summary, key quotes and chapters whenever a name is said aloud. Replace them with codes before the transcript goes into your manuscript, as your ethics protocol requires.

Which formats come out, and is the audio private?

Your choice of TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT or JSON; most students use DOCX for the appendix and TXT for coding. Recordings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training.
