A monthly allowance instead of a daily drip

A three-file daily cap is awkward the moment work arrives in batches -- a week of interviews, a backlog of episodes. A monthly allowance lets you clear the pile in one sitting.

More minutes on the free plan

60 minutes a month is enough for a long webinar, a full podcast episode or a set of interviews without reaching for a card.

Long recordings are the point

Hour-plus files are the normal case here, not the edge case. They process in the background and survive a closed tab.

Links and uploads both work

Paste a public link from YouTube, Vimeo, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Twitch, SoundCloud or Dailymotion, or upload directly.

Timestamped and searchable

Clickable timestamps make it practical to verify a quote without scrubbing through audio.

Exports for whatever comes next

TXT, SRT, DOCX and JSON all come from the same transcript.

Frequently asked questions

How does the free plan compare to Uniscribe's?

LongScribe gives 60 minutes a month against Uniscribe's 120, and does not limit how many files you upload in a day.

Is there a daily upload limit?

No. The monthly allowance is yours to spend on one long recording or several shorter ones.

Can I try it without signing up?

Yes, a short clip runs with no account so you can judge accuracy on your own audio first.

Does it handle long recordings?

Yes. Multi-hour files queue in the background instead of timing out.
