In short

With the Vimeo download the engine writes the task list: the transcript first, then the sections Topic, Tasks, Ideas for later. The speech is in English, the free plan gives 3 files a day, and one file is up to 30 minutes.

    The transcript of the Vimeo download goes to the instruction that is written for the task list, and the sections of the answer are Topic, Tasks, Ideas for later.

  4. 4

    Tell the engine what it hears

    The engine reads 99+ languages; the speech of this Vimeo download is in English, and the widget carries that setting for the task list.

    The download button is on the page of the video only when the owner of the video has enabled the downloads

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.
