Covered languages

Brian transcribes audio and video files from 99 languages – all common languages are supported and it is not needed to provide the language of the audio file.

Please consider that the transcription quality depends on the audio/video language-country pair, content domain and audio/video clarity/quality.

Source

The actual transcription is performed by OpenAI’s Whisper technology. With hosting in Europe, you can be ensured your data is safe according to highest data security and privacy standards.

Special Remarks

Data privacy (security):

    • The Whisper service deployed in Azure within Europe ensures that audio data is processed in compliance with GDPR, with no recordings stored or used for model training. All data remains within European data centers, maintaining strict security and privacy standards. 

Recommended “command” to let Brian know what you want:

    • “Transcribe the attached file” and attach the file to the email or with the paperclip icon in Teams.

Duration of transcribe request:

    • In our recent tests, we processed a 1.5-minute audio file under 30 seconds and a 32-minute audio file in 2 minutes. We are continuing to enhance the service to make it even faster.

Trouble?

For troubleshooting, consider the following:

  • Please share with Brian the actual file – not a link (e.g. to sharepoint), Brian has no access to your file system
  • The transcription works only if you provide the language of audio/video file
  • Please attach one audio/video file only in the request. If you need multiple transcriptions, send Brian multiple requests
  • Files having characters like % \ / : * ? ” < > | # in their file names are not supported on MS Teams
  • Brian transcribes files up to 25 MB, depending on the communication channel
  • The transcription quality will depend on the audio/video language-country pair, content domain and audio/video clarity/quality
