How to transcribe Somali audio and video to text

Add the Somali recording
A Somali news clip, podcast or interview works as an audio file (MP3, WAV or M4A), a video file (MP4, WEBM, MOV or MKV) or a YouTube, TikTok, Vimeo or X link. Upload the file or paste the link.
Choose Somali
Open the language list and choose Somali under All Languages. Unsure what language a file is in? Auto Detect (beta) also recognises Somali.
Check the transcript
The transcript opens in the editor with timestamps. Each paragraph carries a speaker label that you can rename or reassign. Correct any misheard words before you export.
Download or translate
Download DOCX or TXT with optional timestamps and speaker names, or SRT and VTT subtitle files. The translate panel turns the transcript into any of 116 languages.
