How to transcribe a voice recording

Choose the recording file.
Select the spoken language or keep Auto-detect.
Run the transcription and wait for the timestamped result.
Export TXT for notes, SRT for captions, or VTT for web video.

What can change the result?

Names, numbers, strong accents, distant microphones, overlapping speakers, and music over speech deserve a manual check. A transcript is a useful draft, not a substitute for listening to important lines in the original recording.
