Who benefits from interview transcription?
Journalists and content producers
Search the transcript to find an answer, then listen to the complete passage before selecting a quotation.
Researchers and students
After naming the speakers, search for key terms and compare the answers you intend to use in your analysis.
People who conduct professional interviews
Review questions, answers, names, and role-specific terminology before sharing the record with anyone else.
How should you prepare the recording?
Use the version with the clearest voices and keep the microphone close to the participants whenever possible. Choose the spoken language and enable speaker separation.
If the room has echo, people interrupt each other, or someone joins remotely, note the subjects that will need closer listening.
Daily file limits are 10 without an account and 20 when using the Free allowance. Pro, Studio, and transcriptions using purchased minutes have no daily file-count limit; available minutes and per-file limits still apply.

How to review questions, answers, and speakers
1. Identify each voice
Listen to the start of the conversation, confirm who is speaking, and rename the speaker labels.
2. Correct names and terms
Check people, organizations, places, job titles, numbers, and vocabulary specific to the subject.
3. Verify quotations against the audio
Before publishing or attributing a statement, listen to the complete passage and confirm that the transcript preserves the answer's meaning.
How can you use the transcript?
Search the text to find a subject, select quotations that you have already checked, keep a record of the interview, or use the reviewed TXT during analysis and writing.
A practical review example
For an interview with a researcher, start by naming the two speaker labels. Search for the name of the study, check numbers and specialist terms against the audio, and only then copy the answers you plan to quote.
When should you listen more carefully?
Overlapping speech, interruptions, noise, and distant participants can mix words or assign a passage to the wrong speaker label. Compare important sections with the recording before quoting or sharing them.
Questions about interview transcription
Does Transcrever know the participants' names?
It separates voices into labels, but it does not know each person's name automatically. Listen to the recording and replace the speaker labels with the participants' names in the transcript editor.
How long an interview can I transcribe?
That depends on your access: 10 minutes without an account, 30 minutes on Free, 3 hours on Pro, and 6 hours on Studio. If the recording is longer, trim the section you need or compare the plans before uploading.
Which formats can I download the transcript in?
You can download TXT for plain text or DOCX to keep working in a document editor. Use SRT or VTT when you need speech with time ranges. Saved corrections remain available after a refresh in the same browser; cross-device task history is available only on Pro and Studio.
How long does the transcript stay available?
The result and saved corrections remain available for 7 days without an account and on Free, 30 days on Pro, and 90 days on Studio. Without an account and on Free, reopen the task in the same browser; cross-device history is available on Pro and Studio.
If the interview is an MP3 or has several voices
