What people say

Trusted by creators & journalists

Real workflows: interviews, lectures, podcasts, and client deliverables.

I used to scrub a two-hour interview just to pull three quotes. Now I upload the WAV, search the transcript, and I'm done before lunch.

I record every lecture on my phone. Dropping those files here is the only reason I have notes I can actually study from.

Jordan HaleGrad student, public health

Jordan Hale

Field interviews are messy. Speaker labels + timestamps mean I can find the exact line without listening twice.

Lena OrtizFreelance reporter

Lena Ortiz

After client calls I export the Zoom audio, run it through File Transcribe, and send a clean transcript the same afternoon.

Captions used to eat a whole evening. With speakers and timestamps I cut SRT edits roughly in half for my YouTube uploads.
