How your audio is handled

Transcription involves personal data by nature. Here is how we handle it, in plain language.

  • TLS in transit, encryption at rest
  • Delete files manually or automatically after 1, 7, 30 or 90 days
  • Data processing agreement for business customers
  • Your content is never used to train models
  • Sub-processors (transcription/LLM providers) listed in the privacy policy

Frequently asked questions

Which file formats can I transcribe?

Audio: MP3, M4A, AAC, WAV, FLAC, OGG, Opus, WMA, AIFF. Video: MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV, AVI, MPEG. You can also paste a YouTube or direct media link.

How accurate is the transcription?

It depends on audio quality, language and the provider you choose. Clear speech in a major European language usually needs only light proofreading; noisy rooms, heavy accents and overlapping speakers need more. Custom vocabulary and the editor make fixing names fast.

Which languages are supported?

Transcription in 98+ languages including English, German, French, Spanish, Polish, Russian, Italian, Dutch and Portuguese. The interface is available in 25 languages.

Can I use Windows speech to text instead?

Windows speech to text (Windows key + H) types what you say into the text field you are in, which is handy for short notes. It cannot transcribe a recording you already have. For audio and video files, open Audiotexta in any browser on Windows and upload the file.
