What you get

Turn your recordings into text you can review, edit, and summarize.

You get readable, editable text from recordings without typing everything out yourself. Import audio or video, record through your microphone, or capture sound from apps such as Zoom and Google Meet. If you have several recordings to process, you can transcribe them together rather than handle each separately.

You can see who said what with automatic speaker labels, then rename speakers and correct the transcript. As you replay the recording, word-level highlighting helps you follow along. You can also adjust timestamps and split or merge segments to keep the text aligned with the audio.

Your transcription runs locally on your Mac. For multilingual work, you can transcribe in more than 100 languages and translate the resulting text. When you only need the main points, you can generate an AI summary using your own API key.

Screenshots

From the developer

Audio and video can have a lot of valuable info, but getting it out manually takes time and messes with your workflow. TranscribeX can turn your recordings into clean, editable text in seconds, so you can focus on thinking, writing, and creating.
