Real Recordings, Not Lab Conditions

Accents and Dialects
Field Audio
Verbatim Where It Counts

Multilingual participants and regional accents are part of the training data — transcripts stay codable without a cleanup pass.

Accents and Dialects

Cafés, clinics, classrooms — noise-tolerant models keep real-world recordings usable.

Field Audio

The editor plays the exact audio behind any passage, so disputed quotes get settled by the source.

Verbatim Where It Counts

For the Whole Study

Every Quote, Checkable

Verification

Every Quote, Checkable

The waveform-synced editor ties text to audio — click a sentence, hear the participant say it.

Rated Excellent 4.8/5 based on 580+ reviews

EU processing and GDPR compliance were exactly what the data-management plan needed for participant interviews.

DE
Dr. Emma S.Qualitative Researcher

Every quote in my thesis links to an exact moment in the recording. Verification takes seconds.

FA
Fatima A.PhD Candidate

Uploaded a two-hour recording during lunch — the transcript was waiting before I finished my coffee. The accuracy genuinely surprised me.

TV
Tomas V.Operations Manager

Our legal team approved it because processing stays on EU infrastructure. That alone ruled out most of the competition.

BD
Bram D.Compliance Officer

Eight participants talking over each other — and the transcript still tracked who said what.

NP
Noah P.UX Research Lead

Multilingual participants with strong accents — transcripts came out clean enough to code the same day.

DJ
Dr. Jan K.Sociolinguist

No card, no tricks — I tested real files before paying and upgraded a week later because the workflow stuck.

IP
Ines P.Freelance Journalist

Had trouble with a huge file — support walked me through batch upload the same morning. Rare these days.

Frequently Asked Questions

Research transcription, explained.

All questions
Upload the recordings (batch upload handles a whole study), pick the language, and receive speaker-labelled, timestamped transcripts in minutes. Verify passages in the synced editor, then export DOCX or CSV for coding.
Yes — speakers are separated and labelled automatically, and attribution holds up through cross-talk. You can rename labels to participant codes in the editor.
Transcription runs on our own EU-based infrastructure under GDPR: encrypted in transit and at rest, never used to train AI, deleted on your schedule. That covers what most IRB/ethics data-management plans ask for.
Export DOCX or CSV with speakers and timestamps preserved — both import cleanly into standard QDA packages.
The models are trained on real-world recordings — accents, dialects and background noise included. Accuracy reaches 99.8% on clear audio and degrades gracefully rather than collapsing.
Yes — transcribe your first interview free, no credit card required.
