How Swahili behaves in automatic transcription

Automatic transcription is never perfect: quality depends on the recording, and in Swahili, usually heavy checking is required — use your free 5 minutes on a real file first. That is exactly why the editor exists — checking is part of the job, and it is built to be fast.

Swahili spelling is regular and Latin-scripted, and everyday East African speech freely mixes English and local languages; the transcript follows the speech.

What every transcript includes

Voices, untangled

Automatic speaker separation shows who said what. Labels live within one recording only — we never build voice profiles across recordings.

Every word is timed

A timestamp on every word, to the second, so every quote carries a citable moment.

Hear what you're fixing

The audio plays from the word you're checking, and words the AI is unsure about stay flagged until you've looked.

Translate, then verify

Machine-translated drafts open beside the original, line by line — free, into 28 languages where the pair is supported.

Search by meaning

Search all your recordings at once, by meaning — not just exact words, even across languages. Your searches are never logged and never stored.

We respect your material

Every company that touches your audio is EU-owned and EU-based — not just EU regions of overseas clouds. Deleted means gone: audio and transcript are deleted together, on the schedule you choose, and everything derived from your file is deleted with it.

Your recordings never train anyone's models — no third-party AI service ever sees your files; every model we use runs on our own EU servers. The security page explains it all in plain language.

Transcription without subscription

Transcription without subscription: €5 per hour of audio, pro-rated to the second, and the exact price appears before you pay. If a file can't be processed, the charge refunds itself automatically. Your first 5 minutes are free, without a card — use them on a real file to see what to expect.

Frequently Asked Questions

About Swahili transcription

How accurate is Swahili transcription?
It depends on the recording more than anything: clear speech near the microphone needs lighter fixes, and in Swahili, usually heavy checking is required — use your free 5 minutes on a real file first. We do not guarantee an errorless transcript — what we promise is easy checking: uncertain words stay flagged, and the audio plays from the word you're checking. Your first 5 minutes are free, so test a real file.
Does it tell Swahili speakers apart?
Yes — automatic speaker separation (speaker diarization) labels each voice, and telling the wizard how many people are speaking makes it sharper. Labels live within one recording only; we never build voice profiles across recordings.
Can I translate the Swahili transcript?
Translation is included free with every transcript, into 28 languages (22 of the 24 official EU languages among them), wherever the language pair is supported — the languages section on the home page shows the current list. Translated drafts open beside the original, line by line, for checking.
Is my Swahili audio safe here?
It stays on EU-owned, EU-based infrastructure, is never used for training, and audio and transcript are deleted together on the schedule you choose — immediate deletion is always available. A data-processing agreement (DPA) is available on request.
