Podcast Transcription Made Easy

Create transcripts, show notes, and subtitles for your episodes in minutes

Why Podcasters Love Transkript

As a podcaster or content creator, you know that transcripts and subtitles can dramatically increase your reach. But traditional transcription services are expensive, slow, and often require uploading your content to the cloud.

Transkript runs 100% on your device using Apple Intelligence. Your unreleased episodes stay private, transcription is instant, and you can export in any format you need – completely free.

Step-by-Step Workflow

Export your podcast episode
Save your finished episode as MP3, M4A, or WAV from your editing software (GarageBand, Logic Pro, Audacity, Adobe Audition, Hindenburg, etc.)
Open Transkript and import your file
Drag and drop your audio file into Transkript, or tap "Open" to select it from your files. Video files (MP4, MOV) are also supported.
Select your language and start transcription
Choose your podcast's language (or "Auto" for automatic detection) and tap "Start Transcription". Watch as your episode is transcribed in real-time.
Review and edit the transcript
Fix any recognition errors directly in the app. Each segment includes timestamps, making it easy to navigate and correct specific parts.
Export for YouTube: SRT or VTT subtitles
Use the "Optimize Subtitles" feature to split long segments into readable 2-line captions. Export as SRT for YouTube or VTT for other platforms.
Generate AI-powered show notes
Go to Step 3 and use "Summarize" to create episode descriptions, key takeaways, and chapter markers automatically.

Pro Tips for Podcasters

Subtitle Optimization: Use the "Optimize Subtitles" feature in Step 3 to automatically split long segments into proper subtitle format (max 80 characters, 2 lines). This ensures your YouTube captions are easy to read.

Show Notes Workflow: After transcription, use the "Summarize" feature with "Bullet Points" enabled. This creates a perfect template for episode descriptions, including key topics and timestamps.

Guest Names: If speech recognition gets guest names wrong, use the edit feature to correct them once. The name will appear correctly in all exports.

Chapter Markers: Combine your transcript's timestamps with the summary to create podcast chapter markers for Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
