Frequently asked questions
How fast is the transcription?
A standard 60-minute audio file is typically transcribed and structured in under 3 minutes, complete with speaker diarization and word timestamps.
What can I transcribe with CastTranscript?
You can upload common audio and video formats (MP3, M4A, WAV, MP4, MOV, WebM), record live conversations in your browser, or import caption text you are authorized to use. Each source opens as a private, editable project.
Can I export subtitles as SRT or VTT for video editing?
Yes. CastTranscript generates verified subtitle cues with sentence and word boundaries that drop directly into Adobe Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, or YouTube.
Does CastTranscript identify multiple speakers?
Yes. Diarization is built-in. Speaker labels appear as distinct tracks with assigned colors, and you can rename any speaker globally across the entire transcript in one click.
Does uploading audio create a public link?
No. Your files and transcripts remain 100% private inside your account. CastTranscript is designed for file export and direct production handoff, never accidental public URLs.
