Frequently Asked Questions - Online Transcription

Common questions about our service

ForgeFile's AI reaches up to 98% accuracy on clear audio recordings with standard accents. Accuracy can vary for low-bitrate files, heavy background noise, or rare dialects, but our noise-filtering pre-processing significantly improves results in challenging conditions.

Most files are transcribed in 2–5 minutes regardless of length. A one-hour recording typically returns a transcript within 3–4 minutes. Processing time depends on file size and server load, but results are always delivered well within the same session.

We support all major audio and video formats: MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, AAC, OGG, AMR, WMA (audio) and MP4, AVI, MOV, MKV (video). If your format isn't listed, contact us - we can handle virtually any media file.

You can download transcripts as SRT (SubRip) or VTT (WebVTT) subtitle files. SRT is compatible with most video players and editing software; VTT is the standard for HTML5 web video and streaming platforms like YouTube and Vimeo.

Yes. ForgeFile supports transcription in 30+ languages including Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Japanese, Chinese, Arabic, Hindi, and more. Language detection is automatic, or you can select the language manually for best results.
