Is this transcription tool really free?

Yes. You can transcribe up to 10 minutes of audio completely free with no signup required. For longer audio files, create a free account to unlock extended limits.

What audio formats are supported?

The tool supports MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, OGG, and WebM audio formats. Most common audio file types work out of the box.

Is my audio data kept private?

Your audio is processed securely and is not stored after transcription is complete. Privocio is built around privacy-first principles.

How accurate is the transcription?

The free tool uses our standard accuracy model which works well for clear audio in most languages. Paid plans offer advanced models with higher accuracy for noisy environments and specialized vocabulary.

Can I transcribe in languages other than English?

Yes. The tool supports automatic language detection and can transcribe audio in over 50 languages including Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, Hindi, and more.

What happens after 10 minutes?

For audio longer than 10 minutes, create a free Privocio account. Signed-in users get up to 3 hours of transcription every 4 weeks at no cost. For higher volumes, check out our Go and Pro plans.
