Frequently asked questions

Is Script free?

Yes. It is free, needs no account, and has no API key to set up.

Is my recording uploaded?

No. Transcription and editing run in your browser. The speech library and model are downloaded from public servers the first time and then cached.

How accurate is the transcript?

Clear speech in English is transcribed very well. Noisy audio, strong accents and other languages are less accurate, so check the text. The larger model is more accurate but slower.

Which languages work?

The English models are fastest. The multilingual model supports many languages, including Hindi, Spanish, French and German.

How long does it take?

The first run includes a model download of tens of megabytes. After that, transcription runs on your computer and takes a fraction of the recording length to a few times that, depending on your device.

What are the limits?

Up to 300 MB and 90 minutes per file. The edited video export plays in real time, so keep the tab open.
