Transcribe an arbitration hearing one hearing day at a time.
If you need to transcribe an arbitration hearing that ran from morning to evening, upload the day's recording below. Each file can hold up to 10 hours or 5 GB, an 8-hour day returns in about 16 minutes, and the first 20 minutes are free. It comes back as a working transcript with timestamps, so the post-hearing brief can quote testimony while the record is still fresh.
Why a hearing day fits here
Openings, witnesses and closings, on one timeline per day.
A hearing day stays whole
Arbitration days run long: openings in the morning, two or three witnesses through the afternoon, procedural housekeeping at the end. The recording of that day goes up as one file of up to 10 hours, and nothing has to be trimmed to fit.
Multi-day hearings, one file per day
A hearing that runs a week becomes five uploads, each named for its date, each with its own clock. Put the files in a Google Drive folder and paste the share link, or send a large video day through the upload page.
Testimony you can find again
Chapters follow the shape of the day, so each witness's direct and cross is a section you can open. The brief lists the figures, dates and documents mentioned, and a chat over the transcript answers questions like what the expert said about the damages model.
A week of hearing on one pack
An 8-hour day is 480 minutes and fits the $6 pack of 500 minutes. A three-day hearing at roughly 22 hours is 1,320 minutes, which the $12 pack of 2,000 minutes covers with time left for the closing submissions.

✗ Notes and a long recording
Post-hearing submissions are due while the team is still rebuilding what each witness said from handwritten notes.
- Quotes reconstructed from partial notes
- Hours of video per day with no index
- Disputes over what a witness conceded
- Expert numbers buried in the afternoon session
- Each day's notes kept in a different style
- The panel's questions half remembered
✓ Every hearing day as searchable text
Each day of the hearing returns as one transcript on its own clock, so quotes come with a time you can check against the recording.
- One transcript per hearing day
- Each witness found by chapter
- Figures and dates collected in the brief
- Questions from the panel kept in place
- About 16 minutes for an 8-hour day
- DOCX for the brief, JSON for review tools

FAQ
Arbitration hearing recordings, answered.
How quickly does an 8-hour hearing day come back?
In about 16 minutes, since processing runs at roughly 2 minutes per hour of audio. A shorter procedural hearing of two hours is usually ready in about four. The public proof run transcribed 9.31 hours in 1,033 seconds.
What does a three-day arbitration hearing cost?
Three days at roughly 22 hours of recording comes to about 1,320 minutes, and the $12 pack of 2,000 minutes covers that in one purchase. A single 8-hour day is 480 minutes, inside the $6 pack of 500 minutes. Packs are one-time purchases and the credits never expire.
How large can one hearing day's file be?
Up to 5 GB and 10 hours, whichever comes first. Before the first pack is bought, uploads are capped at 2 GB, so a heavier video day starts once a pack is on the account. A share link from Google Drive or Vimeo skips the upload altogether.
Should I merge the hearing days into one long file?
No, keep one file per day. Merged days quickly pass the 10-hour ceiling, and a transcript per day matches how the record is cited anyway. A single day that somehow runs longer than 10 hours goes in as two files.
Can this replace the certified hearing transcript?
No. It is an AI transcript with timestamps for working from, not a certified transcript of the hearing, not a substitute for a court reporter, and not legal advice. Parties who need an agreed official record should still arrange one.
What exports come out, and where does the audio go?
TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT and JSON all come from the same run. Hearing recordings are processed on our own servers and none of them is ever used to train a model; delete the file and its transcript at any point.
