What Hushscript does differently
A complete transcript workflow
Private by design
Hushscript removes its transcription audio after processing, never trains on your recordings, and encrypts stored transcripts and Insights at rest. Choose auto-delete after 7, 30, 90, or 365 days, or use private mode, which saves no transcript to your account.
No subscription
Buy a prepaid minute pack only when you need one, starting at $1.99. Hushscript has no monthly fee or recurring plan to cancel.
30 free minutes for eligible accounts
Eligible personal accounts get 30 free minutes once, after card verification or with a first purchase.
Free speaker labels
Speaker detection adds no minutes: Hushscript separates who said what at no extra cost, and you can rename speakers or reassign turns in the editor.
Transcribe audio, video, calls, and voice recordings
Hushscript is an AI transcriber and transcript generator for the recordings you already have: audio to transcript, video to transcript, interviews, meetings, podcasts, lectures, voice memos, and recorded phone calls. A transcript is a text version of your recording, ready to read, search, and edit. Recordings can run up to 10 hours. Transcription is available in around 99 languages, with automatic detection for the preview and language controls in the app.
Free tools
Need to convert, extract audio, or compress a file first? Hushscript's free tools run entirely in your browser: no signup, nothing leaves your device, and they're genuinely free.
Frequently asked questions
How does Hushscript keep my recording private?
Your source video stays on your device: Hushscript prepares the audio in your browser and sends only that for transcription. Hushscript removes its transcription audio after processing and never trains on your recordings. Stored transcripts are encrypted at rest, and you choose how long they stay. Private mode saves no transcript to your account; speech recognition still runs online, and you get a password-protected archive.
How do I transcribe an audio or video recording?
Transcription turns spoken audio or video into written text, called a transcript. To transcribe a video or get a transcript from video, add a local file. For audio, you can also use a supported audio link or a short in-browser recording. Either way, preview up to 5 minutes first. After you sign in, choose the full transcription settings and Hushscript creates an editable, timecoded transcript. Local video is prepared in your browser, so the source video stays on your device.
Can I get free AI transcription for audio and video?
Yes, three ways. Use Hushscript as a free transcriber for a preview of up to 5 minutes before you create an account; a new personal account gets a free preview of up to 5 minutes from its first upload in the app; and eligible personal accounts get 30 free minutes once, after card verification or with a first purchase. Full transcription needs an account and available minutes, and longer work uses prepaid packs with no subscription.
What kinds of recordings can I turn into transcripts?
Hushscript is an automated transcription service for interviews, meetings, podcasts, lectures, voice memos, and recorded phone calls, from audio or local video up to 10 hours. You can also merge related recordings before starting.
Can I edit, analyze, and export the transcript?
Yes. Correct the text and speaker names in Hushscript, then export 21 formats including TXT, DOCX, PDF, SRT, VTT, CSV, and JSON. Your first optional Insights generation is free; one free Insights run creates summaries, actions, decisions, open questions, chapters, quotes, and a complete Cleaned transcript. Later regeneration uses minutes. A password-protected .husharchive is available as a separate bundle.
Are speakers labeled?
Yes, when you select speaker detection, which adds no minutes. You can rename speakers or reassign individual transcript turns in the editor. It works across the supported transcription languages. Check automatic labels against the recording, since overlapping speech can fool them.
What languages can Hushscript transcribe?
Hushscript transcribes around 99 spoken languages. The preview uses automatic detection; after you sign in, you can keep automatic detection or set the source language before the full transcription.
