Interview Transcription
Get a verbatim transcript of a recorded interview — but know first: no speaker labels, so both voices return as one continuous text block.
Step-by-step guide
How to Use Interview Transcription
Start for free — no credit card, no software to install.
Upload the interview recording
Bring in the raw audio from your recorder or phone once the conversation is over.
Read the transcript against your notes
Since speakers aren't labeled, cross-check the text with your own memory or notes to attribute lines.
Pull direct quotes from the text
Copy the exact wording you need instead of re-listening to find a quote.

About this tool
Everything you need to know about Interview Transcription
Before you rely on this for an interview: there are no speaker labels. A recorded conversation between you and a source comes back as a single unbroken transcript, not split into separate speaker tags — you'll need to read it and mark who said what yourself, which matters for a quote-heavy piece. What you do get is the words, verbatim as spoken, plus the recording's duration, with language auto-detected. A typical interview runs well inside the free tier's 20 minutes or Lite's 1 hour; a longer sit-down fits Pro's 3-hour ceiling. Long interviews process as a background job rather than a live wait, so submit the file once you're done recording.

FAQ
Interview Transcription — FAQ
Common questions users ask about the Interview Transcription voice. If you need additional help, please contact us via the contact form or email us at support@vocallab.ai.
Does the transcript show who said what?
No — there are no speaker labels, so an interview with two or more people comes back as one continuous block of text that you'll need to attribute yourself.
Is this safe to use for a direct quote?
The transcript reflects the words as spoken, but always cross-check a quote against the audio before publishing, since there's no confidence or accuracy score attached.
How long can an interview recording be?
20 minutes on Free, 1 hour on Lite, 3 hours on Pro and 6 hours on Max, per uploaded file.
Can I translate the interview into another language afterward?
No, transcript translation isn't part of this tool — you get the text in the language it was spoken.
