Questions

Common questions

Can Exemplary AI convert Tamil audio to text?
Yes. Tamil is in the upload language list. Upload the recording (MP3, WAV or M4A) or video (MP4, WEBM, MOV or MKV), or paste a link, choose Tamil, and the transcript opens in the editor. Transcripts are accurate on clear audio, with an editor to review and fix any errors.
How do I get the Tamil transcript of a YouTube video?
Paste the video's YouTube link where you would upload a file, choose Tamil as the language and start. The Tamil transcript opens in the editor with timestamps and speaker labels, ready to edit, translate or download as DOCX, TXT, SRT or VTT. If a link will not import, download the video and upload the file instead.
What can I download from a Tamil transcript?
DOCX or TXT files, with optional timestamps, speaker names and highlights, or SRT and VTT subtitle files for Tamil captions.
Does the Tamil transcript show who is speaking?
Yes. Every upload asks for speaker labels and the default Tamil speech model provides them, so each paragraph is tagged with a speaker. In the editor you can rename speakers, add new ones or move a paragraph to another speaker.
Is there a separate option for Sri Lankan Tamil?
No. Pick Tamil for recordings from Tamil Nadu, Sri Lanka, Malaysia or Singapore; the list has no regional Tamil entries.
Can I translate a Tamil transcript?
Yes, into any of 116 languages from the translate panel. Tamil is on that list too, so transcripts in other languages can be translated into Tamil.

500 one-time credits; files up to 500 MB and 30 min long. The paid plans raise both limits.

One upload. Every format you need.

Drop in a recording and work from the transcript — clips, captions, chapters, show notes and posts all come from the same file.
