Notta alternative

Three minutes per file is a demo, not a tool

That is what Notta's free plan allows — plus 120 minutes for the whole month. Here a lecture, an interview or a three-hour workshop goes through in one piece, because the recognition runs on your own computer.

When Notta is the better choice

Notta lives in the browser and on the phone, joins online meetings and shares transcripts with a team. If you need transcripts in a shared workspace, with colleagues editing the same text, it is built for that and this app is not.

Frequent questions

How long can a recording be?

As long as your disk allows. The limiting factor is processing time, not a quota.

Are timestamps included?

Yes, the transcript is broken up by time and by speaker.

What is paid here?

Only cloud work: AI translation, cloud recognition, premium voices, OCR.
