Edit video and podcasts by editing text
Edit audio and video by deleting, rearranging or retyping words in the automatic transcript, with a full multitrack timeline available when you need it.
Describe the edit you want in plain language and let the AI assistant assemble a tight cut, add clips and handle repetitive production work.
Remove background noise, level out voices, and fix misread lines with Regenerate Speech using a clone of your own voice.
Generate subtitles and transcripts in a click, translate video into other languages, and reformat long recordings into shareable vertical clips.
Pay-as-you-go podcast transcription and summarization in about a minute
The service advertises transcription of a 60-minute audio file in less than a minute, with email notification or dashboard status when the job finishes.
Each job returns plain text, SRT, VTT, and JSON, so the same transcript works for reading, subtitling, and further processing in your own tools.
Roughly 21 languages are supported, from English, Spanish, and Chinese to Hindi, Thai, and Ukrainian, with detection handled for you.
Search millions of podcasts and hundreds of millions of episodes in the same interface and transcribe an episode without downloading the audio yourself.
