Questions and answers
Is it really free and unlimited?
Yes. No plans, no minute or file limits and no account. The speech model runs on your computer, so we have no per-minute costs. The site is supported by ads.
Do you store my files or transcripts?
No. Audio is never uploaded. Transcripts live in your own browser, and you can delete them at any time.
Why does the first transcription take longer?
The first time you use an accuracy setting, your browser downloads that speech model once: 64 MB for Fast, 136 MB for Balanced, about 510 to 590 MB for Accurate and about 760 MB for Best. The app shows the size and asks before downloading. After that it is saved and starts in seconds, even offline.
Will it use my mobile data?
Only for the one-time model download, never for your recording. On mobile data the app suggests Fast, the 64 MB model. If you can, do the first transcript on Wi-Fi; after that no data is used at all.
How do I remove the downloaded model?
Clear this site’s data in your browser settings (site settings, then delete data). That removes the saved models and your library, so download a backup of your library first.
Which browsers work?
Recent Chrome, Edge, Safari and Firefox. Chrome and Edge on a computer are fastest. Safari 26 and Firefox on Windows also support graphics acceleration.
Does it work on phones?
Yes, for shorter recordings. Phones have less memory, so use a computer for long files and Fast or Balanced on mobile.
How do I get better accuracy?
Choose the spoken language, use Accurate or Best, keep Clean up audio on and record close to the microphone. See the recording guide.
Does it identify speakers automatically?
No. Label speakers with one click per line and name them. Labels appear in every export.
Can I use transcripts commercially?
Yes. You own your transcripts. You are responsible for having the right to record and transcribe the audio.
Is it suitable for legal or medical records?
It produces strong drafts, but AI transcripts are not certified. Review them carefully and use certified services where rules require it.
Why can’t my file be opened?
Your browser cannot decode that format, for example WMA, AMR or AVI. Convert it to MP3 or MP4 with VLC or Audacity, both free.
How do I move my library to another computer?
Open the library, choose Download backup, then Restore backup on the other computer.
