Transcribe a long Tagalog podcast or vlog with show notes drafted from it.
A long Tagalog podcast or vlog, the 2 to 3-hour kind, comes back as text in about 6 minutes for a 3-hour episode. The first 20 minutes are free, and a $6 pack of 500 minutes covers the rest of the episode and more. Paste the YouTube or RSS link below and the episode is fetched for you.
What one episode becomes in text
The kuwentuhan stays yours; the text does the busywork around it.
Links instead of uploads
Paste the YouTube link of the episode, including a live replay, or the RSS feed of the podcast, and the audio is fetched on our side. Twitch, Kick, Vimeo and Google Drive links work too. Stream replays past the 6-hour mark wait until a pack is on the account.
Show notes with timestamps
Chapters follow the topics the hosts drift through, each with a title and a time, which is most of a YouTube description already. The brief adds the episode's main thread and takeaways, and lists the names, places and numbers that came up. Paste the chapters into the description, adjust the wording, and the episode becomes searchable where people find it.
Quotes for your shorts
Key quotes come with the timestamp and the host or guest named, so you can find the moment in your editor and cut the short yourself. Hosts and guests are named in the summary, quotes and chapters when they use each other's names on air.
Speech in, music out
Intro music, sound effects and the laugh track are not transcribed; the talking is. Tagalog is detected automatically, English lines come back cleanly, and a guest who answers in Bisaya or Ilocano gets a fast first draft of that part that is worth one review pass.
Why long episodes stall
Three hours of talk is too much to type and too good to leave unsearchable.
✗ Captions and memory
Most long Filipino shows go out with auto-captions and a two-line description written from memory.
- Auto-captions that drop Tagalog words
- Show notes typed up from memory
- Quotes found by scrubbing the video
- A guest's best line lost in hour two
- Captions that stop partway through
- No text for the back catalogue
✓ One link, the whole episode
The episode comes back as one transcript with chapters, quotes and caption files that share one clock.
- A 3-hour show, text in about 6 minutes
- Chapters to paste into the description
- Quotes with the time to cut from
- Hosts named in the summary
- SRT and VTT for captions
- Old episodes added from the feed

FAQ
Long Tagalog episodes, the common questions.
How long does a 3-hour Tagalog episode take?
About 6 minutes. Speed is roughly 2 minutes per hour of audio, so a 2-hour vlog is usually ready in about 4. The episode keeps processing after you close the tab.
What does one episode cost, and a whole back catalogue?
A 3-hour episode is 180 minutes, and after the first 20 minutes free it fits the $6 pack of 500 minutes. Ten episodes of 2.5 hours are 1,500 minutes, inside the $12 pack of 2,000. Twenty-five such episodes are 3,750 minutes and need the $24 pack of 5,000 minutes, which also includes API access.
My episode is a large video file. Will a huge episode file go through?
An episode file can run to 10 hours and weigh up to 5 GB. Without a pack yet, a file can be up to 2 GB; beyond that, it starts after your first purchase. Pasting the YouTube link avoids the upload altogether.
Do I need to split a 3-hour episode into parts?
No. Send it whole and the chapters, quotes and captions all share one timeline. A marathon stream beyond 10 hours is the only case for two files.
Does it handle Taglish and other Philippine languages?
Tagalog and Filipino are detected automatically among 99 languages, and English and Tagalog switches inside one episode are handled. Guests who answer in English come back in English.
Which formats do I get, and is my unreleased episode safe?
TXT and DOCX for show notes or a blog post, SRT and VTT for captions, and JSON for your own tools. Recordings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training. Delete an episode and its transcript whenever you like.
