Every episode you publish is also a pile of untapped content sitting in an audio file. A transcript unlocks it: show notes your listeners can skim, a page Google can actually index, and quotes you can drop straight into a caption for the clip you're cutting for social.

Transkio transcribes podcast episodes fast, holds up across crosstalk and multi-mic setups, and hands you a transcript in the format you actually need - plain text for a blog post, SRT or VTT for the video cut, or a structured export with timestamps once you're ready for it.

Manually transcribing episodes eats the week you don't have

A 45-minute conversation between a host, a co-host, and a guest takes hours to transcribe by hand, and most generic transcription tools blur the three voices into one wall of text - useless for show notes, worse for an SEO page you're hoping ranks.

By the time a transcript is ready, the episode has already been live for days, the moment for a timely blog post has passed, and the clips you wanted to caption for social are still sitting untouched in your editing timeline.

One upload, a transcript your whole workflow can use

Transkio turns a raw episode file into a clean transcript with each speaker on their own line, so you can tell your co-host's voice from your guest's without listening back to check. Export it as TXT for a show-notes draft, SRT or VTT for the video version of the episode, or a richer format once you need timestamps and speaker labels for a producer or editor.

Because everything runs from a straightforward upload, there's nothing to configure per episode - drop in the file after you finish recording and start building the episode page while the transcript comes together.

What You Get

Multi-speaker accuracy, not a wall of text

Host, co-host, and guest are captured as distinct voices, so the transcript actually reads like the conversation instead of one unbroken paragraph.

Speaker labels for a cleaner script

Turn on speaker detection on the Elite plan to get each line attributed by speaker, ready to hand to an editor or paste into a script doc.

Show notes without the rewrite

Generate AI summaries with key points and takeaways on the Elite plan, then shape them into show notes in minutes instead of re-listening to the episode.

A transcript is a page Google can crawl

Publish the transcript alongside your episode and give search engines real text to index - something the audio file alone can never offer.

Captions ready for the video cut

Export SRT or VTT subtitles on every plan, including free, so your video-podcast clips and full episode uploads are caption-ready for social and YouTube.

Start free, scale when the show grows

Try Transkio with 60 trial minutes and no card required, then get 30 minutes every month free after that, with files up to 100MB.

True-crime episode, raw audio vs. cleaned transcript

Before — raw auto-captions

so we're back and today's case is is honestly one of the weirdest ones ive ever looked into um the woman went missing in like nineteen eighty seven from a gas station off route nine and nobody nobody has seen her since so i brought in retired detective frank obrien who actually worked the original case back in the day

After — Transkio transcript

HOST: We're back, and today's case is honestly one of the weirdest ones I've ever looked into. The woman went missing in 1987 from a gas station off Route 9, and nobody has seen her since. HOST: So I brought in retired detective Frank O'Brien, who actually worked the original case back in the day.

Frequently asked questions

Can it tell my co-host's voice apart from our guest's?

Yes. Speaker detection labels each line by speaker so a three-person conversation - host, co-host, and guest - stays readable instead of blending together. This feature is available on the Elite plan and above.

What audio format should I upload from my recording setup?

Transkio accepts the formats most podcast gear and DAWs export, including WAV, MP3, M4A, AAC, OGG, OPUS, and FLAC for audio, plus MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV, and MPEG for video episodes. A WAV export straight from your recorder or a standard MP3 mixdown both work well.

Can Transkio write my show notes for me?

Transkio can generate an AI summary with key points and highlights from the transcript on the Elite plan and above, which gives you a strong starting draft to edit into finished show notes rather than a full rewrite from a blank page.

Can I get subtitles for the video clips I post from my episodes?

Yes. SRT and VTT subtitle exports are available on every plan, including the free plan, so you can caption video-podcast uploads and short-form clips without needing to upgrade first.

How much can I transcribe before I need to pay?

The free plan includes 60 trial minutes with no card required, then 30 minutes every month after that, with a maximum file size of 100MB per upload - enough to test Transkio against a real episode before committing to a plan.
