I built Longscribe to turn long podcasts and videos into transcripts and subtitles
I'm the maker of Longscribe. I built it because many transcription tools become awkward or expensive when the source is a long podcast, interview, webinar, or video.
You paste a public link from YouTube, Vimeo, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Twitch, X, Dailymotion, or SoundCloud. Longscribe creates a transcript with clickable timestamps and lets you edit it in the browser.
Current exports:
- clean text
- SRT subtitles
- DOCX
- JSON
The practical use cases I care about are searchable podcast archives, show-note drafts, finding quotes for clips, captions, and accessibility.
You can test a short recording without an account. A free account currently includes 600 transcription minutes per month and doesn't require a card.
I'd especially value feedback from people who work with 60–180 minute recordings:
Which export or publishing integration is missing?
Is browser editing enough, or would DAW/NLE integration matter?
What would stop you from trusting the output in a real workflow?
