No sign-up. Files are deleted right after transcription.

Study smarter with searchable notes

Use Ctrl+F to jump straight to the part of a lecture where a topic was explained, copy definitions word for word, and combine transcripts from a whole course into one revision document.

For teachers

Share transcripts with students who missed a class, need more time to process spoken content, or are learning in their second language. Transcripts also make it easy to reuse your explanations in handouts.

Recording tips

Sit near the front or use the lecturer's microphone feed if available. A recording made from the back of a large hall picks up echo and chatter, which lowers accuracy.

Frequently asked questions

Can I transcribe Zoom or Google Meet class recordings?

Yes. Upload the MP4 or M4A recording file.

Will it recognise technical terms?

Common scientific, legal and technical vocabulary is recognised well. Rare names and acronyms may need a quick manual correction.

Do I need permission to record a lecture?

Follow your institution's rules. Many universities allow personal study recordings but not sharing them publicly.
