Transcribe a Waray radio program and find any segment by what was said.
A 3-hour Waray talk programme recorded off air or from the station's stream comes back as text in about 6 minutes, with chapters per segment and the names and figures said on air. The first 20 minutes are free, and two 3-hour programmes, 360 minutes, fit the $6 pack of 500 minutes.
For producers, researchers and station staff
Radio is said once and gone. The text keeps what the host and the callers said, in order and searchable.
Segments, not one long block
News, the interview, the call-in hour and the public service announcements each become a chapter with a start time, which makes a three-hour show something you can browse.
Who and what was named
Officials, places, dates and figures mentioned on air are listed with timestamps. A researcher checking what was said about a typhoon response finds it in seconds.
Quotes for the station's page
Key quotes from the host and guests come with the minute they were spoken, ready for the show's post and its follow-up story.
Any way you recorded it
Off-air recordings from a recorder or phone upload directly. A show posted to YouTube is pasted as a link, and a long simulcast video goes through the upload page.
Why archives go unused
A shelf of recorded programmes is only useful if someone can find the minute they need.
✗ Programmes kept as audio files
The show is recorded every morning, the files pile up, and when a listener asks what the guest said last month, someone listens through hours to find it. Election coverage, disaster updates and public service calls are exactly the material people want to look up later.

FAQ
Waray radio programs, answered.
How long does a 3-hour programme take?
Around 6 minutes. A 2-hour morning show takes about 4, at roughly 2 minutes of processing per hour of audio.
What does a month of daily shows cost?
Twenty-two weekday programmes of 2 hours are 2,640 minutes, which needs the $24 pack of 5,000 minutes. One week of five 2-hour shows is 600 minutes and fits the $12 pack of 2,000 minutes. Credits never expire, so a pack bought for one month's archive carries over into the next.
How accurate is it on Waray radio speech?
English and Tagalog are transcribed cleanly, and segments that switch between them are handled. Waray is supported but trails the major languages, so treat Waray segments as a fast first draft and plan one review pass before you quote them.
Are the jingles and music transcribed?
No. Music, station IDs sung over music, and sound effects are not transcribed; the speech of the host, guests and callers is.
Do I need to split a long off-air recording?
Not up to 10 hours or 5 GB per file, whichever comes first. Before any pack is bought, uploads top out at 2 GB, and longer off-air captures start once a pack is on the account. If an upload refuses an odd recorder format, convert it to MP3 first.
Which exports do I get, and are recordings kept private?
The text leaves as TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT or JSON. Unaired material is treated the same: recordings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training.
