- What does WhipScribe do for media intelligence recordings?
- Paste a podcast episode or YouTube URL. Get the transcript today.
- How much does it cost?
- Every recording starts with a free preview of its opening minutes; a pack from $4 (300 minutes) transcribes the rest and opens every export. Credit packs: $4 = 300 min · $18 = 3,000 min · $32 = 6,000 min; credits never expire and there is no seat fee. Workspace is $19 a month for unlimited transcription (300-hour fair-use mark; 100 GB of storage included, then $3 per extra 100 GB a month).
- How long does a transcript take?
- A one-hour recording is usually ready in about two minutes; most files finish in under a minute. Files up to 10 hours or 5 GB per file.
- Is it private?
- Yes. Transcribed on our own servers; audio is never sent to a third-party AI service. Never used to train, fine-tune or evaluate any model. Delete a recording and its transcript at any time; account deletion removes every record tied to the email.
- Which languages and files does it accept?
- 99+ languages, detected automatically; the transcript comes back in the recording's language. WhipScribe translates a finished transcript into any of 99 languages with the same timestamps, so SRT and VTT stay aligned. Input: any audio or video file (MP3, MP4, M4A, WAV, FLAC, OGG, WEBM, MOV, GSM and more), a YouTube, podcast, RSS, Google Drive, Twitch or Kick link, or a microphone recording. Export: TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT, JSON.
Built for Media intelligence
What matters when transcribing media intelligence recordings?
Mention detection
Shipping: watchlist of brand, product, or exec names. Surface every timestamp where a watched term appears across the episode catalog.
Key-quote extraction
Shipping: the 3–5 lines most worth pulling into a brief or a share card, with per-word timestamps so producers can cut without scrubbing.
Topic trend lines
Shipping: week-over-week topic frequency. What did hosts in your industry actually talk about this week — not what PR press releases said they should have.
API for newsroom stacks
REST API + webhook on job complete. Feed your Slack alerts, CMS drafting, or internal dashboards directly from the transcription pipeline.
How it works
How do I transcribe a media intelligence recording?
Drop or paste
A file, a YouTube link, a podcast link or an RSS feed. Up to 10 hours or 5 GB per file.
Read in a minute
Timestamps, a summary and AI chat over the transcript. Click any line to hear it.
Get the brief, not just the text
The Intelligence tab reads the recording back to you: a short brief, chapters, the names and numbers that were said, and the questions it answers. Export TXT, SRT, VTT, DOCX or JSON whenever you want it elsewhere.
Intelligence
What comes back from a media intelligence recording?
Industry panel — three brands named on stage
Brief overview
Your brand is named twice, once favourably and once as the expensive option, both by the same speaker.
- The favourable mention at 19:05 is about reliability and is quotable.
- The second mention at 42:30 frames you as the premium choice — neutral, not hostile.
- A competitor is named four times, always by the moderator, never by the panel.
Questions this recording answers
- How were we described?
- Reliable at 19:05, expensive at 42:30 — both from the same panellist, neither disputed.
- Who brought up the competitor?
- The moderator, all four times. No panellist raised them unprompted.
Chapters
- Panel introductions
- First mention — reliability
- The procurement tangent
- Second mention — price
