Transcribe a 90-minute recording and read the first 20 minutes free.
Ninety minutes is the length of a long meeting, a research interview or a university lecture. Upload it and it comes back in about 3 minutes; the first 20 minutes are free to read, and a $6 pack of 500 minutes transcribes the rest from where the preview stopped.
The everyday long recording
An hour and a half of talk, ready before the next meeting starts.
Three minutes
At about 2 minutes per hour of audio, a 90-minute file is usually done in around 3 minutes. That is quick enough to transcribe an interview between two calls. Most of the wait is the upload, and a 100 MB file goes up in well under a minute on a normal connection.
Preview, then the rest
A first-time visitor gets the first 20 minutes free, enough to see how names and accents came out. A pack transcribes the remaining 70 minutes from where the preview ended, so nothing is processed twice.
The cost of 90 minutes
Ninety minutes uses less than a fifth of a $6 pack of 500, leaving at least 410 minutes. A researcher with five interviews of this length still has 50 minutes over after one pack.
What you need from it
For a meeting: the decisions and who owns them. For an interview: quotes you can lift with the timestamp. The brief, chapters and key quotes cover both, and the chat answers anything else. Ninety minutes of conversation is about thirteen thousand words, which is why the pulled-out parts save most of the time.

FAQ
90-minute recordings, answered.
How long does it take to transcribe a 90-minute recording?
About 3 minutes. Processing runs at roughly 2 minutes per hour of audio, and the finished transcript is also saved to your Library.
Is a 90-minute recording free?
The first 20 minutes are free for a first-time visitor. A recording of 20 minutes or less transcribes in full; for 90 minutes, a pack from $6 transcribes the rest from where the preview ended. That way you judge the quality on your own recording, not on a demo.
How much does 90 minutes cost?
Ninety minutes from a $6 pack of 500, leaving at least 410 for later recordings. Credits never expire and there is no subscription.
What size is a 90-minute file?
As MP3, roughly 85 to 130 MB; as a Zoom MP4 with video, often 300 MB to 1 GB. Both upload before you buy a pack, since the limit before a pack is 2 GB. Audio exported from Teams or Google Meet falls in the same range.
Does it handle accents and other languages?
99 languages are detected automatically, including recordings where speakers switch languages partway. Speakers are identified and named in the summary, key quotes and chapters, so an interview reads as a conversation between named people.
Which exports are included, and is the recording private?
Exports come as TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT and JSON. Interviews often carry personal details, so it is worth saying that recordings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training.
