For creators and researchers. Upload the recording (or paste a link) and get an accurate English transcript with speaker labels and timestamps in minutes — private by default.

English YouTube videos, transcribed properly

English (English): American, British, Indian, Australian, Irish, Scottish, Nigerian and Singaporean English are transcribed by the same model — there is no accent setting to pick, and no need to tell it which one you have. Numbers, dates and currency are written as digits rather than spelled out, and filler words are kept rather than tidied away, so the transcript matches what was actually said. Heavy crosstalk is the usual limit: two people talking over each other is the one case worth reviewing.

YouTube videos in particular: Word-level timing produces accurate captions, not just a wall of text. SRT captions, descriptions and quotable moments with timestamps.
