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

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.
