How long may the recording of a lesson be?
One file is up to 30 minutes, on every plan. A lesson that runs longer has to be cut into two files and sent one by one.

In short
Upload the recording of the lesson and the transcript comes back with the start and the end of every line, so the minute a rule was explained can be found again. One file is up to 30 minutes; free is $0 with 3 files a day.
The case
Why a lesson needs a timecode
A lesson is spoken once and never again. Everything that matters in it — the example the class did not get, the question that was asked twice — sits inside a recording that plays forward only. A transcript with timecodes turns that recording into something you can point at: the minute of the rule that broke, the second the answer came.

How to transcribe a lesson
- 1
Record the lesson the way you teach
The phone on the desk records the lesson. One file may be up to 30 minutes, which covers a double lesson without a cut.
- 2
Upload it and let the language be found
Drop the recording into the widget above. Leave the language on automatic detection or set it yourself, and switch on the split by speaker when you want the class apart from you.
- 3
Turn the lesson into your notes
Every line carries the time it starts and ends. Export TXT or Markdown for the lesson plan, or CSV when the tasks have to go into a spreadsheet.
- 4
Send the recording on with subtitles
SRT and VTT are two of the six export formats, with the same start and end times as the transcript, so a pupil can read the lesson while the video plays.
Tips
Check the names of the pupils in the first minute.
Keep the recording; the transcript is derived from it.
Name the file after the date and the class.
Export Markdown for the lesson plan and SRT for the video.
Questions this page answers
Can the class be told apart from the teacher?
Yes. Switch on the split by speaker and the transcript names the voices separately on request: the pupil who asked the question, and you answering it. Without it the lines carry no names, only the times.
What happens to the voices of the pupils?
The audio is never used to train models for other customers and never sold.Athe recording language is detected automatically.
Do I need a card to try it?
No. The free plan is $0 with 3 files a day and up to 30 minutes per file, and it asks for no card. Pro is $10 a month when you pay yearly, or $20 a month when you pay monthly.
