Transcribe a Portuguese church service recorded in Japan and share the pregação with families on every shift.
A Portuguese-language church service recorded in Japan, usually around two hours, is transcribed at about 2 minutes per hour of audio, so a 2-hour culto is text in roughly 4 minutes, with Portuguese detected automatically. The first 20 minutes are free, and four 2-hour services, 480 minutes, fit the $6 pack of 500 minutes.
For church media teams
Many members work factory shifts on Sunday. The transcript brings them the message they could not attend.
The pregação in writing
The brief gives the sermon's main point and takeaways in Portuguese, ready for the WhatsApp group, the célula guide or the church page.
Versículos listed
Every book, chapter and verse read aloud appears with its timestamp, together with the dates, names and places from the avisos.
Captions for the replay
SRT and VTT files add Portuguese captions to the service video, so someone watching on a phone during a break can follow without sound. Songs carry no captions because music is not transcribed.
Old cultos, all at once
Paste a Google Drive folder of past services, or send a full-length camera file through the upload page. Each service gets its own transcript and chapters.
Why the message gets lost
The culto goes on YouTube, and members on the night shift never find the hour they need.
✗ The usual Monday
The replay is two hours long, the pastor's notes stay on paper, and volunteers type summaries for the group chat after a full work week.
- No written pregação for absent members
- Volunteers typing late at night
- Tools that expect English and stumble on Portuguese
- Captions left out of the replay
- Bible references buried in the video
- Camera files too large to send

Sample output
A Sunday culto in Portuguese, from a congregation in Japan.
Invented lines for illustration only, from no real church or pastor. Gloss: open your Bibles to Romans 12; even far from home, God has a purpose here; this week's prayer meeting moves to Saturday because of the overtime shift; let us pray.

FAQ
Portuguese church services in Japan, answered.
How long does a 2-hour culto take to transcribe?
About 4 minutes, at roughly 2 minutes of processing per hour of audio. A 90-minute service takes about 3, so the text can reach the group chat before members leave the parking lot.
What do a month, a quarter and a year of cultos cost?
Four 2-hour services are 480 minutes on the $6 pack of 500. Thirteen, a quarter of Sundays, are 1,560 minutes on the $12 pack of 2,000. Forty services, 4,800 minutes, fit the $24 pack of 5,000. Prices are in US dollars only, the packs are one-time, and the credits never expire.
Do we need to tell it the service is in Portuguese?
No. Portuguese is detected automatically, from 99 languages. Brazilian Portuguese is the main language of these services, and English mixed into the speech is handled. A Japanese announcement inside a Portuguese culto stays in the same transcript; the recording is detected on its main language.
The camera file is huge. Will it work?
A file can be up to 10 hours or 5 GB. Before a first pack, uploads go up to 2 GB, so a long full-resolution video starts once a pack is on the account. At 5 Mbps a video uses about 2.25 GB per hour, so a 2-hour culto is around 4.5 GB. If the service is streamed to YouTube, paste the replay link instead.
Are the louvor songs transcribed?
No. Music, sound effects and crowd noise are not transcribed; the speech is. Readings, prayers, testimonies spoken from the front, the pregação and the avisos come through as text.
Is the recording private?
Recordings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training, so prayer requests read aloud stay with the church. You download TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT or JSON.
