In short

Our engine speaks 99+ languages, and will not take Amharic. AssemblyAI lists 99 languages, Amharic among them (assemblyai.com/languages, read 22 October 2026). Send the Amharic recording there; the 99+ languages part can come here, up to 30 minutes on the free plan.

The case

Where our engine stops

A conversation recorded in Amharic has to be written down by something that was trained for Amharic, and our own engine was not. What we do well is the other half of the recording: the 99+ languages parts, the answers given to a colleague who speaks both, the handover to a partner. Those come back with a timecode on every line and the speakers named on request.

How it works

How to get Amharic speech into text

  1. 1

    Listen through the recording

    Note where the language changes. A call that starts in Amharic and turns to English is two files after you split it, not one.

  2. 2

    Hand the Amharic part over

    AssemblyAI publishes 99 languages, Amharic among them, on its own language page, read on 22 October 2026. The link is in the sources below.

  3. 3

    Send the 99+ languages part here

    Drop it on the widget above: up to 30 minutes. The transcript comes back line by line, with the time each line starts and ends.

  4. 4

    Put the two texts side by side

    Export TXT or Markdown for the file, CSV when the times and the speakers have to go into a sheet. Each part keeps its own timecodes.

Tips

  • Split the recording before the upload, not after the transcript.

  • Check the first minute of the Russian part for names.

  • Keep the original recording; both texts come from it.

  • Write the source of every part into the file name.

Questions this page answers

Does Transcribsi transcribe Amharic?

No. Our engine covers 99+ languages, and we say so on every page of this site. Amharic audio needs an engine that was trained for it.

What happens if I upload an Amharic file anyway?

The widget has no Amharic in its language list, so the file would be taken as Russian and the text would come back wrong. Split the recording first and keep the Amharic part out of the upload.

Dthe recording language is detected automatically.

Yes, and that is the part we are good at. A conversation that switches between 99+ languages inside one sentence keeps both languages as they were spoken.

How much does the free plan give?

$0, three files a day and up to 30 minutes per file, without a card. The paid plan is $10 a month when you pay yearly.

Do you publish an accuracy number?

We publish no single score for our engine. Without the test set behind it a number means nothing, so ask for the evaluation report and the sample set and we will send you both on request.
