Why Sales, Legal & Customer Service Teams Choose ForgeFile

Phone call recordings need specialized transcription. Call recordings often have narrow-band audio (8 kHz), compressed codecs (AMR, G.711), and two distinct speakers on different audio channels. ForgeFile is optimized for these conditions - handling call audio accurately and labeling each party (caller and receiver) separately.

Phone Call Transcription FAQ

What file formats are used for phone call recordings?

Common call recording formats include MP3 (most platforms), WAV (call center systems), AMR and AMR-WB (mobile phones, WhatsApp), and M4A (iOS call recorders). All are supported by ForgeFile.

Can it separate the caller and receiver in the transcript?

Yes. Speaker diarization automatically identifies each party in the call and labels them separately throughout the transcript. Dual-channel recordings (where each party is on a separate audio track) produce the most accurate separation.

How accurate is phone call transcription?

Phone call audio is typically narrow-band (8 kHz) and compressed, which reduces accuracy compared to studio audio. Our AI is optimized for call audio and typically achieves 85–93% accuracy on clear calls. Heavy compression (AMR at low bitrates) may reduce accuracy further.

Can I transcribe call center or VoIP recordings?

Yes. Common call center and VoIP recording formats (MP3, WAV, and dual-channel WAV from systems like Avaya, Genesys, Cisco, and Twilio) are all supported.

Are my call recordings kept confidential?

Yes. All recordings are encrypted in transit and at rest, processed in an isolated environment, and permanently deleted from our servers immediately after you download the transcript. No data is retained or shared.

Can I transcribe calls in languages other than English?

Yes. Select the call language from 50+ supported options before uploading. Good results for major European, Arabic, and Asian languages.
