Transcribe long Transistor episodes across every show you host.
Each show on a Transistor account has its own RSS feed, and a one-hour episode pasted from it is transcribed in about 2 minutes. The first 20 minutes are free, and three weekly one-hour shows, 720 minutes a month, run two months on the $12 pack of 2,000 minutes with 560 left.
Many shows, one account
Agencies and companies with several podcasts need one place for the text.
A feed for each show
Transistor lets one account host several podcasts, and each one has its own RSS feed. Paste a show's feed, pick the episode, and the audio is fetched without a download; repeat with the next show's feed. A private or unpublished episode goes in as an uploaded file instead.
Long episodes are fine
An interview show that runs past two hours is still one recording, never chopped. Uploaded files may reach 10 hours or 5 GB; up to 2 GB goes through before any pack, and a linked episode is never uploaded at all. Each show's episodes stay listed under your account, so a producer can find last month's text without asking.
Budgeting several shows
Three shows publishing one hour a week use about 720 minutes a month. The $12 pack of 2,000 minutes carries two months of that and keeps 560. A larger network on 5,000 minutes a quarter fits the $24 pack, and a team that records weekly can use the $19 Workspace.
Text every show can reuse
For each episode: a brief with thesis and takeaways, timestamped chapters for the description, the names and figures said, and the questions it answers. The chat finds the episode where a topic came up, which helps when one network shares guests. Intro music and stingers are left out of the text; only the speech is transcribed.
Running a network
Several shows mean several backlogs of untranscribed audio.

FAQ
Transistor shows: the usual questions.
How long does a Transistor episode take?
Close to 2 minutes for each hour of a Transistor episode. The proof page lists a 2.48-hour file that took 200 seconds.
What will three weekly shows cost?
Twenty minutes come free on a first visit. Three one-hour shows a week, about 720 minutes a month, fit the $12 pack of 2,000 minutes for two months. One episode alone fits the $6 pack of 500.
Do I connect my Transistor account?
No. There is no integration or login; you paste each show's public RSS feed, or upload a file for an episode that is not public. Nothing changes in Transistor, and your analytics and settings are untouched.
Can different shows use one balance?
Yes. Credits sit on your WhipScribe account, never expire, and are spent by any recording you send, whichever show it comes from. One pack can cover a quiet month on one show and a busy one on another.
Which languages are supported?
99, detected automatically per episode. A show that switches between English and French in one episode is detected on its main language.
Which exports come back, and is the audio safe?
Every episode gives you TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT and JSON. Every show is transcribed on our own servers and never used for training, and you can delete any file and its transcript.
