From recorded interview to usable quotes
The recording is the easy part of an interview. The expensive part is the hours afterwards, scrubbing back and forth to find the moment where the subject said the thing that made the whole conversation worth having.
TranscribeX produces a speaker-labelled transcript of the full interview in a single pass. Both audio and video files work, so a Zoom recording, a phone memo, and a field recorder all follow the same path. Enable multi-speaker detection and interviewer and subject stay clearly separated — including in panels and group interviews.
For journalism, research, and user studies the transcript becomes the working document: searchable, quotable, and easy to code or annotate. One caveat worth keeping — verify any quote against the audio before you publish it. Crosstalk and heavy accents are exactly where automated transcripts need a human ear.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. Enable multi-speaker detection and the transcript marks each speaker's turns separately, so an interview reads as a dialogue rather than a block of text.
Yes. Upload the video file directly — MP4 and MOV work — and the audio track is read automatically. There is no need to export audio first.
Files are processed securely and deleted after transcription, and no account is created. For interviews under a formal confidentiality or ethics agreement, check that terms allow third-party processing before uploading.
Accuracy is high on clear recordings, but always check a quote against the audio before publishing it. Crosstalk, strong accents, and background noise are where transcripts most often need a correction.
Yes. Speaker detection is not limited to two voices — panels and group interviews are labelled per speaker as well.
