TranscribeThis accepts audio and video recordings in formats such as MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, and MOV directly through your browser, and also provides links and recording upload options. After processing, you can click on specific timestamps in the transcript to play the corresponding audio, adjust transcription settings and speaker labels, and then extract quotations or generate summaries, decisions, risks, and action items. It is designed for post‑recording material processing and should not be marketed as offering real‑time live transcription for all users.

Audio must be submitted to the server for processing; this is not a purely local tool. The free tier allows you to upload files without creating an account, while the paid plans further differentiate between saving, collaboration, and export privileges. TXT and JSON are listed as free in the feature table, whereas SRT, VTT, DOCX, and PDF fall under the paid category. The page’s accuracy and processing speed are stated as marketing claims; actual results may vary depending on audio quality, overlapping speech, accents, and technical terminology, so it’s advisable to review the output before delivery.

Journalists, researchers, podcasters and video producers, as well as conference teams

The official website states that the free plan allows uploads of up to 50 MB, with a limit of three transcriptions per day, each lasting no more than 30 minutes. The Standard plan costs $19.99 per month and offers unlimited transcription sessions, though individual files are capped at 5 hours; the Premium plan, priced at $29.99 per month, adds features such as shared workspaces, meeting recording, and API/SSO access. “Unlimited sessions” does not mean there are no limits on file size, duration, or account requirements.
