How to transcribe a Kannada recording

  1. Upload the file (up to 5 GB) or paste a link from YouTube, TikTok, Facebook or another platform.
  2. Keep Kannada as the spoken language (or auto-detect), add a translation if you want one, and pay once.
  3. Download the Kannada transcript as plain text, text with timestamps and SRT subtitles.

Written in Kannada, not in Latin letters

Your transcript comes back in Kannada, the script Kannada is normally written in, not as a romanised approximation. The SRT file is plain UTF-8 text, so the characters display correctly in YouTube Studio, VLC, Premiere Pro and other modern players and editors.

Translate Kannada audio into English or another language

Choose a translation language before paying and you get two versions: the original Kannada transcript and a line-by-line translation, both as TXT and as SRT with the same timings. That makes it easy to check the translation against the original, or to publish subtitles in both languages.

Questions

Is Kannada written in Kannada script?

Yes, in Kannada script. Bengaluru speech often mixes in English, and English words may be kept in Latin letters; check them if you need Kannada script throughout.

How accurate is Kannada transcription?

A clear Kannada recording with one speaker at a time comes out close to word-perfect. Accuracy drops with background music or noise, people talking over each other, strong regional accents and poor phone recordings: the same things that make a recording hard for a person to follow.

Can I translate Kannada audio to English?

Yes. Pick English (or any of 141 other languages) as the translation language before paying. You get the original Kannada transcript and the translation, both as TXT and SRT.

What if the recording mixes Kannada and English?

Leave the spoken language on auto-detect. Each part is written in the language it is spoken in, so English sentences stay in English instead of being forced into Kannada.

Will the Kannada transcript be in Kannada?

Yes. The text is written in Kannada, the way Kannada is normally written, not transliterated into Latin letters.
