In short

With the Loom video the engine writes the blog post: the transcript first, then the sections Headline and lead, Outline, Draft. The speech is in English, the free plan gives 3 files a day, and one file is up to 30 minutes.

How it works

How to get the file and turn it into a blog post

  1. 1

    Choose the resolution

    The wanted resolution is chosen: 1080p or 4K, according to the resolution of the screen

  2. 2

    Send the file to the engine

    The Loom video goes to the service through the upload widget; the speech is English, and the blog post comes back into the chat.

  3. 3

    Give the transcript to the instruction

    The instruction of the blog post is written for this task already: it reads the text of the Loom video and asks for Headline and lead, Outline, Draft, and it keeps every claim to the transcript.

  4. 4

    Mark the language of the speech

    The engine reads 99+ languages; the speech of this Loom video is in English, and the widget carries that setting for the blog post.

  5. 5

    Check the file before the upload

    The app of Loom for iOS records a video in 720p and does not change the resolution

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.
