Transcribe online lectures and recorded classes

Two hours of video lecture are reviewed in twenty minutes on text. Download the recording, upload it and get notes with timestamps: search a concept, find it, go back to the video only if needed.

How it works, step by step

  1. Download the recording from the course platform (Moodle, Panopto, Kaltura, Teams, Zoom) if downloads are enabled; otherwise ask the lecturer for the file or record the audio from your computer.
  2. Upload the file to trascrivo.com: video or audio, any length.
  3. Pick the language and press Transcribe. Download the TXT and paste it into your notes; the timestamps take you back to the spot in the video.

Study from text, not from video

With text you can search, highlight, reorder by topic and write review questions. Formulas and proper names need checking; the rest of the lecturer's reasoning is there, in the order it was explained, with minutes to revisit the hard parts.

Protected recordings and course rules

Many universities restrict lecture downloads: respect the course rules and use the text for personal study only. If the platform does not allow downloads, a screen recorder with system audio produces an uploadable file.

FAQ

Can I upload a Panopto or Moodle link?

No, you need the file. Download it if the lecturer enabled the option, or record the audio.

The lecture is in English with technical terms: does it work?

Yes. Standard technical terms are recognised well; check acronyms and proper names.

How long does a two-hour lecture take?

Usually two or three minutes.
