Below are some commonly asked questions related to transcription in general, as well as the use of AI to aid the process.
Transcription is the process of converting spoken words from an audio or video file into written text. This can be done manually, like it’s been done for decades, or with the help of AI-powered tools like AI Transcripter.
Transcription is important because it makes video and audio content accessible in written form, which is easier to search, reference, and share. It also helps when creating documentation or supporting articles, and improves accessibility for those with hearing impairments.
The accuracy of AI transcription varies depending on several factors. The quality of the audio or video file plays a big role, as does the clarity of speech in the file itself. Videos that are clear and have only one or two speakers will be transcribed much more accurately compared to a podcast where everyone is shouting and talking over each other.
AI Transcripter uses advanced algorithms to deliver high accuracy, but some manual editing may be needed to achieve perfect results, especially when there’s lots of background noise present or the speakers have strong accents.
The time it takes to transcribe a recording depends on the length of the audio or video file and the complexity of the content. AI Transcripter processes files quickly, often delivering results within minutes for shorter recordings.
AI Transcripter supports a wide range of audio and video file formats, including MP3, WAV, and MP4 (among other popular files). You can upload your files directly to our platform for transcription, or send a link from a platform such as YouTube.
Yes you can, and that’s the great thing about AI Transcripter. You can easily edit the transcript after it’s been generated.

To improve transcription accuracy, ensure your audio is clear, there’s minimal background noise, and that speakers talk at a steady pace. Using a good quality microphone also helps.
This is entirely down to you. A lot of our customers like to proofread and edit the transcription file just to completely polish it and make it perfect, while others who use it to generate captions for YouTube and TikTok use it as is, since they’re not worried about minor mistakes from time to time. While AI Transcripter delivers high accuracy, it’s always a good idea to proofread the transcript, especially for critical documents. This ensures everything is captured correctly.
Yes, AI Transcripter can handle recordings with multiple speakers. The system can differentiate between speakers and separate their dialogues within the transcript, though manual labeling may be required for precise identification. Obviously, recordings with just one speaker giving instructions are much more likely to be transcribed more accurately than loud podcasts with multiple guests talking over each other.
