Frequently asked questions

Is it really free?+

Yes. Free to start with no card: you get 3 transcripts a day, up to 30 minutes each. Sign up in 10 seconds with Google or email to save your transcript and run more than 3 a day when you need it.

Do I need to sign up?+

You can drop a file and start transcribing right away. Sign up in 10 seconds with Google or email to save your transcript in your account and run more than 3 transcription jobs per day. Free to start, no card.

Is my audio private?+

Audio and transcripts live in your account until you delete them. We wipe files from active systems within 7 days and from backups within 90 days. We do not train on your audio.

How accurate is MegaScribe?+

MegaScribe uses OpenAI Whisper, which is known for strong transcription quality. Clear recordings can reach around 99% accuracy, while noisy or overlapping audio may need light review.

Does MegaScribe add speaker labels?+

Yes. MegaScribe can separate speakers automatically, which is especially useful for interviews, meetings, and podcasts with multiple voices.

Are timestamps included in the transcript?+

Yes. Timestamps are available so you can reference exact moments, speed up editing, and make review easier for collaborators.

What file formats does MegaScribe support?+

MegaScribe supports MP3, M4A, WAV, MP4, OGG, and WEBM, covering the most common audio and video recording formats.

Can I export my transcript after processing?+

Yes. You can export transcripts as TXT, PDF, or DOCX, depending on how you want to share, edit, or archive the file.

Who is MegaScribe best for?+

MegaScribe is a strong fit for journalists, podcasters, researchers, and teams that need fast, readable transcripts without per-minute pricing or onboarding friction.

If I transcribe audio to text from a Zoom meeting, will overlapping talk ruin the transcript?+

Heavy cross-talk is still the hardest case for any model. When people mostly take turns, you get a usable first draft fast. For chaotic calls, budget a few minutes of cleanup per 30 minutes of audio.

Can I transcribe audio to text on mobile Safari or Chrome without installing an app?+

Yes. Upload from the phone browser the same as desktop. Very large files are easier on Wi-Fi, but the flow is the same: pick the file, wait for processing, then export or copy the text.

When I transcribe audio to text in Spanish or French, is quality comparable to English?+

Major European languages track close to English on clean audio. Rare dialects or code-switching may need a lighter edit pass, same as accented English.

How many files can I transcribe audio to text for free each day before upgrading?+

You can start three transcription jobs per day on the free tier, with no credit card. The paid plan is a flat monthly rate with unlimited jobs; see our pricing page for current details.

When I transcribe audio to text from an interview, how do speaker labels show up in the editor?+

Each detected turn is tagged with a speaker label and timestamp so you can skim who said what. Those labels flow through to DOCX exports and make quote checks much faster than a single wall of text.
