Text makes an episode work harder
A published episode lives only as audio until you write it down. A transcript becomes show notes, blog posts, social clips, and a page that search engines can actually read, so one recording turns into a week of material with very little extra effort.
Skim the transcript to find your best lines, drop timecodes into your show notes as chapter markers, and lift accurate quotes for promotion. Everything traces back to the moment it was said, so listeners and editors can find it fast.
Full episodes and clean exports
Episodes often run forty minutes to well over an hour, so plan around the limits. The free tier handles files up to thirty minutes, while Pro accepts audio up to five hours, which fits a long conversation or a live show in a single pass.
Export TXT for show notes and blog drafts, SRT or VTT if you publish a video version or audiograms with captions, and DOCX on Pro for a formatted transcript page. Timestamps carry through every format you choose.
Frequently asked questions
Can I transcribe a full podcast episode at once?
Yes on Pro, which accepts files up to five hours long. On the free tier, split a longer episode into parts of thirty minutes or less before uploading each one.
Will the transcript work as show notes?
It gives you the full text with timestamps, which is the raw material for show notes. A quick edit to trim filler and add chapter markers turns it into a polished summary.
Can I add captions to a video version of my podcast?
Yes. Export SRT or VTT and the timestamps sync the captions to your video, which is handy for audiograms and full video episodes shared on social platforms.
