Sign up to post an ideaAsk AI about a transcript
Chat with the transcript to pull quotes, action items, and summaries without re-reading the whole file.
Dark mode for the transcript editor
Editing long transcripts at night is harsh on light UI. A simple dark editor theme would help without redesigning the whole dashboard.
Translation with bilingual view
Translate a transcript and show source + translation side by side for client review.
Minute packs without upgrading the whole plan
Some months I only need extra minutes once. One-time minute packs would beat forcing everyone onto a higher subscription.
Batch upload for multiple files
Let me queue a folder of interviews at once instead of uploading one by one from the dashboard.
NoahFolders, trash, and bulk library actions
Need folders by client, trash with restore, and bulk move/delete for a busy editing week.
OwenDashboard Home stays in the app
Sidebar Home and the logo dump me on the marketing site when I am done editing. Both should open /dashboard instead.
SamiraClickable timestamps that jump in the player
Click a timestamp in the transcript and jump playback to that moment — essential for interview editing.
MatShare a read-only transcript link
Clients want to review a transcript without a seat. A time-limited read-only link with comments off would be enough.
BlakeGoogle sign-in on the login page
Magic link is fine, but Google one-tap would get my team signed in faster.
AishaFull-screen Paddle checkout overlay
Upgrade links sometimes get blocked as pop-ups. A full-viewport Paddle overlay on the same tab would make paying less fragile.
NinaName the transcript automatically from content
Use the first topic or filename suggestion from the audio so my library is not full of "recording-final-v3.mp3".
AustinZapier / Make integrations from the dashboard
Want to push finished transcripts into Notion, Drive, or Slack without copying by hand. Integrations page is a start — need live connectors.
KaiPaddle billing & Pro plans
Need a clear upgrade path and billing portal — ready to pay for higher limits and AI features.
RachelFaster dashboard loads for large libraries
Library and transcript pages felt heavy after a few hundred files. Cutting fat payloads on first paint would help a lot.
CamYouTube & Drive import
Paste a YouTube or Google Drive link and transcribe without downloading the file first.
PriyaCustom vocabulary / glossaries per workspace
Product names and guest spellings keep getting mangled. Let me upload a glossary that sticks across jobs in my workspace.
CaseySearch inside transcript text from the library
Search should hit transcript body text, not only titles — I forget file names after a long shoot week.
IvyNew marketing homepage redesign
Public site still felt older than the product. A clearer homepage, pricing, and company pages would help first-time visitors trust the upload flow.
DevBulk rename speakers across a project
Rename Speaker 1 to "Host" everywhere in one click after diarization.
SaraSlack huddle and Zoom cloud import helpers
Paste or drop a Zoom cloud / Slack huddle recording with less friction. Guides help, but an import helper would be better.
MorganKeyboard shortcuts in the transcript editor
Play/pause, skip, and speaker rename from the keyboard so I never leave the home row while editing.
JulesClearer billing emails on cancel and past due
When a plan cancels or goes past due I only see a generic Paddle message. Send a calm File Transcribe confirmation too.
RileyPublic API for completed jobs
Webhook or REST API when transcription finishes — we use File Transcribe in a post-production pipeline.
dblContent Studio polish for long-form shows
Content Studio is useful for show notes drafts. Needs clearer source picking and fewer dead ends when the transcript is long.
HarperFree tools hub (SRT ↔ VTT and more)
Quick caption converters and format helpers without creating an account first.
MiaDistinguish music, SFX, and speech better
When there is background music or sound effects, the transcript sometimes treats it as speech. Better separation would help podcast and video editors.
NoGameWelcome email on first real login
I signed up, came back two days later, and never got the welcome intro. Fire it on first login if signup was missed.
JordanTeam workspace (3 seats)
Share a library with my assistant and editor — Happy Scribe has this on Business tier.
HendrikBrowser extension for quick page audio capture
Sometimes the audio is already playing in a tab. A lightweight extension to capture and send to File Transcribe would beat re-downloading.
DrewThumbs up on transcript quality
Quick feedback button after transcription is helpful — would be great if it also fed into a public roadmap.
