How to automatically transcribe audio to text?
1. Upload your video.
Upload your media file(s) from your computer or tablet, DropBox, or Google Drive. The first 10 minutes are free.
2. Select Language or Automatic Detection.
Our system automatically identifies the predominant language media files without you having to specify a language. To identify the language with greater accuracy, you can specify the language.
3. Select "ASR Neural Network".
Using deep learning machine models we convert your audio to text. Our system automatically transcribes, adds punctuation and formatting, identify speakers, and provide channel labels, so that the output closely matches manual transcription quality at a fraction of the time and expense.
4. Download subtitles.
Depending on the length of your media files, subtitles are usually generated in just a few minutes.
5. Click on "Export" and choose the VTT subtitle format.

Research shows that if you do business in a single language, you are missing out on a large business opportunity. The movement of information is without borders, speeding up the flow of information, images and ideas. Break down the language barrier through Localization (l10n) and connect with your international customers. Increase your content's accesssibility with Internationalization (i18n), Globalization (g11n), and Localizability (l12y) techniques.
What do the terms a11y, g11n, i18n, l10n, l12y and t9n mean?
a11y is a numeronym1 where "11" represents the number of letters between the first letter ("A") and the last letter ("Y") in the word "accessibility".
g11n is often used to describe globalization, localization (l10n), Localizability (l12y), internationalization (i18n) and translation (t9n) for different audiences.
The process of generalizing a product so that it can handle multiple languages & cultural conventions without the need for re-design is commonly known as Internationalization (i18n). i18n takes place at the level of document development and program.
In other words, i18n is the inevitable step to achieve readiness for localization, meaning to enable localizability (l12y).
Globalization (g11n) makes it possible for people from around the world to connect and work together. g11n consists of internationalization, translation and localization.
Localization (l10n) involves taking content, documents, applications or products and making it linguistically and culturally appropriate to the target locale (country,region and language) where it will be consumed.
1. A numeronym is a number-based word. Most commonly, a numeronym is a word where a number is used to form an abbreviation (albeit not an acronym or an initialism). Pronouncing the letters and numbers may sound similar to the full word: "i18n" for "internationalization".

spch2txt saves time and money!
spch2txt is easy to use and works extremely well. For my longer transcriptions (50-minute podcast interviews) it's usually accurate enough that I can just go with is as is (or review in less than 5 minutes). For my shorter transcriptions, it's easy to make the minor tweaks quickly. Like any automated transcription software, I do my best to annunciate so it transcribes easily. As long as I do that, all works well. The ability to burn the captions into the videos is priceless for when I produce square videos with subtitles.Abby - User Review
Brilliant tool
Brilliant tool. Understands strong accents really well. I transcribed English spoken with Chinese, French, German, Dutch, Korean and Spanish accents and all transcriptions were largely accurate. Acronyms are problematic. Subject matter was very niche - industrial/chemical but that was no problem at all. Saved hours of work.Gustavo - User Review
