Upload the Ukrainian recording or paste its link. WhipScribe transcribes it in Ukrainian, then translates the transcript into English line by line on the same timestamps, so the English reads as text and works as subtitles. Transcription takes about 2 minutes per hour of audio; in production, a 13-minute recording translated in about 32 seconds. A pack from $4 for 500 minutes unlocks the transcript, and the translation adds no charge beyond the minutes the transcription used. It is AI translation, not a certified one.
How to translate Ukrainian audio to English
What the English looks like
Each line of the Ukrainian transcript gets its English line on the same timing. That is why the English export works as subtitles without re-timing.
| Time | Transcript (Ukrainian) | Translation (English) |
|---|---|---|
| 00:00:03 | Добрий день, дякую, що знайшли час поговорити. | Good afternoon, thank you for finding the time to talk. |
| 00:00:08 | Розкажіть, будь ласка, коли ви виїхали з Харкова. | Please tell us when you left Kharkiv. |
| 00:00:12 | Ми виїхали в березні, разом із дітьми. | We left in March, together with the children. |

What to check
The English rests on the Ukrainian transcript. Accuracy is strong on clear audio; give names and technical terms a quick scan. Cyrillic output tuned to Ukrainian — not Russian — including ґ and apostrophes.
In its first 13 days on WhipScribe (to 26 October 2026), people made 34 translations of 28 recordings. 15 were into English and covered about 13 hours of audio; the longest came from a recording of 2 h 32 min.
When every word must be right, or the translation has to be certified for a court or an immigration file, use a human translator. A human transcription service is the right call when nobody on your side can review the Ukrainian.

What it costs
Every recording starts with a free preview of its opening minutes; a pack from $4 (500 minutes) transcribes the rest and opens every export. A recording uses minutes by its length: a one-hour recording is 60 minutes. Translating an unlocked transcript adds no charge beyond the minutes the transcription used.

FAQ
Upload the Ukrainian file or paste a link on this page. When the Ukrainian transcript is ready and unlocked, open the language button above the transcript (it reads Original), choose English under Translate into, and the English appears line by line. Download it as TXT, DOCX, SRT or VTT, or as a bilingual SRT with both languages.
Every recording starts with a free preview of its opening minutes, so you can check the Ukrainian transcript before paying. The translation needs the full transcript unlocked: a pack from $4 for 500 minutes unlocks it, and translating it adds no charge beyond the minutes the transcription used. If you already have Ukrainian subtitles, the free subtitle translator translates the first 20 minutes of an SRT or VTT file.
Yes. The English translation keeps the timestamps of the Ukrainian transcript, so the SRT or VTT export lines up with the video. A bilingual SRT puts the Ukrainian line and its English under it in each cue.
It reads as natural English for clear speech, because each line is translated with its neighbouring lines as context and the names found in the recording's summary are kept consistent. The English can only be as good as the Ukrainian transcript under it, so fix names in the transcript first. Read it before you publish it.
No. It is AI translation for understanding, research, subtitles and drafts. Court, immigration and other official documents usually need a certified human translator.
Yes. Translation works from the transcript, so any recording can be translated into English or any of 99 languages, including Ukrainian. The steps are the same: transcribe, unlock, choose the language.
One file can be up to 10 hours or 5 GB, audio or video. A single translation covers about 6 hours of dense speech; a long recording translates in the background with progress shown.
Recordings are transcribed on our own servers and are never used for training. A translation is visible only to the people who can open the transcript. You can delete a recording, its transcript and its translations at any time.
The Ukrainian transcript first, then English on the same timing. About 2 minutes per audio hour; the opening minutes are a free preview and a pack for the rest is from $4.
