Upload the session recording or paste a public YouTube link. You get the full talk as text with word-level timestamps and speaker labels, ready for captions, a write-up or an exact quote. Files up to 10 hours or 5 GB; files over 500 MB continue on the upload page.
How it works
The same flow works for a 20-minute lightning talk and a full day of sessions.
Use the file from the AV team or your own recording, or copy the public YouTube link once the session is published.
Drop the file here (up to 500 MB; larger files continue on the upload page) or paste the link. A preview appears with no signup.
SRT or VTT for the session video, DOCX or MD for a write-up, TXT for notes, JSON if you are building an archive.
What people do with talk transcripts
Organisers, speakers and writers each get something different out of the same transcript.
Export SRT or VTT and upload them with the recording so viewers can follow the talk with the sound off.
Start a write-up from the DOCX or MD export. The transcript is word for word, so plan an editing pass to turn spoken sentences into readable paragraphs.
Search for the phrase you remember, read it in context and check the wording against the audio at its word-level timestamp.
Every transcript stays in your searchable library, so next year's team can find what was said about a topic across all sessions.
Recording tips
Halls echo, audiences clap and microphones get passed around. A few habits help.
The mixed feed from the venue's audio system is far clearer than a phone in the audience or a camera microphone.
Questions asked without a microphone are often faint. The speaker's answers will transcribe well; expect gaps in the questions themselves.
A full day can run up to 10 hours in one file, but separate session files give cleaner captions and are easier to find later.
Technical terms, product names and acronyms are the usual corrections. Search for each one before publishing captions or quotes.
Pricing
A pack from $4 opens the full transcript, and anyone can preview instantly with no signup. After that, one-time packs cost $8 for 1,000 minutes, $12 for 2,000 minutes or $24 for 5,000 minutes. Credits never expire and there is no subscription: about $0.29 to $0.48 per audio hour, depending on the pack.

| Full conference day | 480 min | $3.84 | $2.88 | about $2.30 |
Costs are the share of each pack the recording uses. A two-day event with 24 sessions of 40 minutes each comes to 960 minutes, inside one $8 pack. See pricing.
