Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose Word over PDF?

Word documents are fully editable — correct transcription errors, reformat text, add headings, insert comments, and collaborate with Track Changes.

PDF is fixed; Word is for when you need to work with the content before finalizing.

Can I edit the transcription in Word?

Yes, completely. The .docx file opens in Microsoft Word, Google Docs, or LibreOffice.

Correct errors, reformat paragraphs, add speaker labels, insert timestamps, or highlight key sections.

Use Track Changes for collaborative review workflows.

Can I convert Word to PDF later?

Yes. Once you've finished editing, export to PDF from Word (File → Save As → PDF) or Google Docs (File → Download → PDF).

This gives you the best of both worlds: editable draft, then polished final document.

When should I use Word vs PDF vs Markdown?

Choose the format that fits your workflow:

  • Word — When you need to edit, collaborate, or use Track Changes
  • PDF — When you need a polished, uneditable document to share or archive
  • Markdown — When importing into Obsidian, Notion, or other notes apps

How does the AI title formatting work?

Our AI analyzes your filename and generates a professional, human-readable document title.

For example, 'meeting_2024_01_15_final_v2.mp3' becomes 'Meeting - January 15, 2024'.

This title appears at the top of your Word document.

What is the difference between Fast and Quality models?

Two OpenAI Whisper models — choose speed or accuracy:

ModelEngineSpeedCost
FastWhisper V3 Large Turbo (809M)~216x realtime2 credits/min
QualityWhisper V3 Large (1.55B)~189x realtime5 credits/min

Fast is the default — great for clear audio, podcasts, and lectures.

Quality uses the full 1.55B-parameter model. Independent benchmarks show ~10% WER for Quality vs ~12% for Fast (Artificial Analysis). Choose Quality for accented speech, noisy recordings, or technical content.

Both models support 99+ languages. Switch in the options panel above.

Can Meeting Intelligence help with meeting notes?

Yes — Meeting Intelligence is ideal for multi-speaker meetings. When enabled, the transcript labels each speaker so you know exactly who said what.

Our AI post-processing attempts to identify speakers by name when they're introduced or addressed during the meeting. This makes your Word document much more useful for:

  • Meeting minutes with clear attribution
  • Interview transcripts
  • Podcast editing workflows

Note: Name detection isn't perfect. It works best when participants introduce themselves at the start ("Hi, I'm John from Marketing") or are addressed by name during conversation. If names aren't detected, you'll see "Speaker 1," "Speaker 2," etc. — which you can easily edit in Word.

Meeting Intelligence costs extra credits but makes collaborative editing and meeting documentation much easier.

Note: File size limits are specific to this converter. Batch and parallel processing limits apply to all images converters site-wide. See all converter limits →

How are credits calculated for this conversion?

Cost: 2 credits per minute

How it works:

  • Files up to 1 minutes: 2 credits
  • 2 minutes: 4 credits
  • 3 minutes: 6 credits
  • 4 minutes: 8 credits

Example: A 10-minute file = 20 credits. A 180-minute (3h) audiobook = 360 credits.

Why per-minute? Audio conversion time scales with content duration, not file size. Longer audio requires proportionally more processing.

What are my daily and monthly credit limits?

Credit allocations vary by account tier:

TierDaily LimitMonthly Limit
Guest100 credits/day
Free100 credits/day
Pro12,000 credits/month

Daily credits (Guest & Free tiers) reset every day at midnight UTC. Monthly credits (Pro) reset on your billing cycle date.

Note: With 2 credit per minute, audio files under 1 MB cost 2 credit each. Pro users can convert 6,000 audio files per month.
