Frequently Asked Questions
Is the transcription tool free?
Yes. No signup, no watermark and no payment — up to 30 files per day per network.
Which file types can I upload?
MP3, WAV, M4A, OGG, FLAC, WEBM, plus MP4 and MOV video files. The limit is 15 MB per file.
Do I get subtitles I can use in a video editor?
Yes. Every result includes a .srt subtitle file with timestamps, ready for Premiere, CapCut, DaVinci Resolve or YouTube.
Which languages are supported?
The transcription model accepts 13 language hints: English, Hindi, Arabic, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Russian, Chinese, Japanese and Korean, plus Auto-detect. Urdu and other languages are not supported for transcription yet - use Auto-detect and check the output before publishing.
Is my audio stored?
No. The file is sent to the transcription model, the text is returned, and the audio is not kept by Clipaist.
How accurate is it?
Accuracy depends on audio quality. Clear speech with little background noise transcribes best; heavy music or crosstalk lowers it.
