Auto Transcription

Every recording becomes searchable with automatic transcription.

Sirvez automatically transcribes your recordings after upload, generating a searchable text transcript with timestamps so you can find any moment by keyword.

Transcription runs in the background after upload — no manual step required. The transcript appears alongside the video in Media Center and is indexed for search.

What it does

Automatic on upload

Transcription runs automatically after every cloud upload, no manual trigger.

Timestamped text

Each line of the transcript links back to the exact moment in the video.

Searchable

Find recordings and jump to specific moments by searching transcript text.

For longer recordings like onboarding walkthroughs or product demos, transcripts dramatically reduce the time it takes for a viewer to find the specific moment they need.

Who uses this

  • Long onboarding and training recordings
  • Support reference videos with searchable content
  • Training content libraries that grow over time
  • Async meeting recordings for distributed teams

Common questions

Is Auto Transcription available on the free plan?

Yes. Auto Transcription runs automatically for all recordings uploaded to Sirvez Media Center, regardless of your plan. Every video you upload will have a transcript generated in the background, which then appears alongside the video in Media Center. The transcript is also indexed so you can search across your entire recording library by keyword and jump directly to the relevant moment in any video without scrubbing through the footage.

How accurate is the transcription?

Transcription accuracy depends on audio quality, microphone type, speaking pace, and background noise levels. Clear narration recorded with a good-quality microphone in a quiet environment typically achieves 90% or higher accuracy. Heavily accented speech, fast-paced delivery, or background noise can reduce accuracy. Technical jargon, product names, and specialised terminology may be transcribed phonetically if they are unusual words. Transcripts are editable in Media Center, so you can correct any errors before sharing. Full answer →

How long does transcription take?

Transcription runs in the background after upload and completes quickly for most recordings. A typical 5-minute recording is usually fully transcribed within 60 to 90 seconds of the upload completing. Longer recordings take proportionally more time — a 30-minute recording might take 5 to 10 minutes. Processing time can vary with server load. You do not need to wait for transcription to complete before sharing; the video is available via its shareable link immediately after upload. Full answer →
