No separate page allowances
The homepage, format pages and this page share your guest or account balance.
A complete first try
Try the upload, edit and export workflow.
You can try cloud transcription as a guest. Choose a short recording within your remaining allowance, transcribe it, and use the finished text without creating an account first.
A free account includes up to 30 lifetime minutes in total. Guest use counts toward that total when linked to your account: using all 10 guest minutes leaves up to 20 account minutes. It is not an extra 30 minutes or a monthly allowance.

How much can I transcribe for free?
Try up to 10 cloud minutes without signing up. A free account includes up to 30 lifetime minutes in total, including linked guest use. The allowance does not renew monthly, and no credit card is needed to try it.
Do I need to register or add a credit card?
Neither is needed for the guest cloud trial. An account is needed to access the free account allowance and paid plans.
Is this unlimited free transcription?
No. The cloud trial and free account have limited, non-renewing balances. The uploader shows how much you can use.
Is TXT download included in the free workflow?
Yes. You can edit, copy and download a completed transcript as TXT within the free allowance.
What are the file limits?
Upload one MP3, M4A or WAV at a time, up to 100 MB. Your plan and remaining allowance determine the maximum duration; the uploader shows your current limit before you choose a file.
