Privacy

Recordings are transcribed on our server by the open-source Whisper speech model, with no outside services. The bot keeps neither the recording nor the text after the reply.

Frequently asked questions

How do I use it in a group?

Add the bot to the group and make it an admin — then it transcribes voice messages on its own. Without admin rights, reply to a recording with /text.

Which languages does it understand?

Many: the speech model recognises dozens of languages, including English, Russian, Spanish, Portuguese, Indonesian and Hindi. Clear speech gives the best result.

Does it work with round video notes?

Yes. Forward a video note and you'll get the text of what was said.
