The chain
Get the recording out of Field recorders (SD-card)
Recordings are WAV (often broadcast-WAV) on the SD card, organized by folder/date; copy off via card reader. Multi-hour WAVs are huge — compress or extract parts before any upload.
Queue the batch
Upload the day's files together — each becomes its own transcript with speakers and timestamps.
Skim, don't listen
Ten recordings review in the time one would take to replay.
For podcasters: The episode becomes text you can repurpose all week.

Do I need to install anything?
No. The free preparation tools run entirely in your browser (WebAssembly), and transcription is a web upload with an instant no-signup preview.
Is my file uploaded during the preparation steps?
