How it works

How to get the file and turn it into a task list

  1. 1

    Record with the safety copy

    In Audacity the recording is exported immediately to WAV or AIFF as a safety copy before the editing starts

  2. 2

    Send the recording to the bot

    The file of the AIFF audio file is attached in the widget of this page, and the speech is marked as English; the answer comes back as the task list.

  3. 3

    Ask the written instruction for the task list

    The transcript of the AIFF audio file goes to the instruction that is written for the task list, and the sections of the answer are Topic, Tasks, Ideas for later.

  4. 4

    Tell the engine what it hears

    The engine reads 99+ languages; the speech of this AIFF audio file is in English, and the widget carries that setting for the task list.

  5. 5

    Check the file before the upload

    The AIFF files are imported into Audacity together with the WAV files and all the PCM variants

The result

What comes back from the engine

  • TXT

    One segment per line, the way a person wrote it down. It is the format to paste into a ticket, a chat or a document.

  • TXT, CSV

    The start and the end time of every segment, and the speakers named separately when you ask for it.

  • SRT, VTT

    SRT and VTT with the time of every line, so the recording can carry its own subtitles.

  • Markdown, DOCX

    The transcript is edited through the API and exported as Markdown for a wiki, or as DOCX for a review.
