Transcribe Zoom recordings
FROM THE RECORDING FILE
Upload the MP4 or audio-only M4A from a Zoom recording. Scriora transcribes the whole meeting, and no bot ever joins your calls.
Free account: 3 previews a week, each covering the first minute. A full transcript uses 1 credit (from 6¢), and files use 1 per 10 minutes, and failed runs are refunded.
Audio: MP3 or WAV up to 50 MB, M4A up to 25 MB. Video: MP4, MOV, or WebM up to 500 MB, read in your browser so only the audio is sent. Only upload recordings you have permission to transcribe.
