FAQ

Common questions

What video formats are supported?

MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, WEBM, and most common video formats. The audio track is extracted automatically — video quality does not affect transcription accuracy.

How long can the video be?

Free users can transcribe video up to 30 minutes. Pro users get up to 4 hours. Premium handles up to 8 hours per file.

Does it work on YouTube videos?

Yes — paste any YouTube URL directly instead of uploading a file. Notelify handles transcript retrieval and processing.

How accurate is the transcription?

OpenAI Whisper achieves 95%+ accuracy on clear audio in most languages. Heavy background noise, thick accents, or low-quality recordings may reduce accuracy.
