Frequently asked questions
Which audio formats can I transcribe?
Jackob.ai accepts all common audio formats, including MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, and OGG, as well as video files whose audio track you want transcribed.
How long does transcription take?
Most files finish in a few minutes. Long recordings take longer, but far less than the recording duration — a one-hour interview typically does not take an hour to process.
Can I try it for free?
Yes. The free plan lets you transcribe real audio each month with no credit card, so you can judge the accuracy on your own recordings before paying.
Does it identify different speakers?
Yes. Speaker identification is included on paid plans, which is essential for interviews, meetings, and focus groups.
