In short

What the Audacity stores is what the engine needs. The Russian speech becomes the revision deck in the sections Cards, Terms to define, Self-check questions; one file may be up to 30 minutes, and 3 files a day are free.

How it works

How to get the file and turn it into flashcards for revision

  1. 1

    Export the safety copy

    The recording is exported at once to WAV or AIFF as a safety copy, before the editing of the file starts

  2. 2

    Upload the file

    The recording of the Recording in Audacity is attached to the widget of the page with the language of the speech set to Russian, and the revision deck comes back as a file of text.

  3. 3

    Turn the text into the revision deck

    The transcript of the Recording in Audacity goes to the instruction that is written for the revision deck, and the sections of the answer are Cards, Terms to define, Self-check questions.

  4. 4

    Mark the language of the speech

    The recording of the Recording in Audacity is in Russian, and that is one of the 99+ languages the engine reads; the setting of the widget says Russian and the revision deck follows.

  5. 5

    Check the file before the upload

    Right after the recording it is strongly recommended to export it at once to WAV or AIFF, ideally to an external drive, as a safety copy before the editing starts

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.
