FAQ
How do I transcribe a podcast for free?
Upload your podcast audio (MP3, M4A, WAV) to VoxTextor. The AI transcribes it with timestamps. Export as TXT for show notes or SRT for video podcasts. You get 30 free minutes per month. Speaker labels unlock on Pro.
Can it distinguish between podcast hosts and guests?
Yes. Speaker diarization (Pro) automatically labels different speakers. You can rename them (e.g., Host, Guest) in the editor before exporting.
What formats work best for podcast transcription?
WAV gives the best accuracy, but MP3 and M4A work well too. Use at least 128kbps bitrate for good results.
How do I create show notes from a podcast transcript?
Export as Markdown to get structured show notes with chapters and key points. Edit and publish directly to your blog or podcast platform.
