Transcribe Polish Audio
Polish packs dense consonant clusters and a full set of diacritics into fast speech, which makes it one of the harder languages to type out accurately by hand. ScribeToAny transcribes Polish speech into correctly spelled, punctuated text for interviews, lectures, podcasts and videos, then exports it in eight formats with timestamps.

What you get: a real transcript
Unedited output from a 64-second interview with two speakers (synthetic voices), transcribed with speaker detection on. Only the first lines are shown.
SPEAKER_00 (0:00) Welcome back to Small Shop Stories. SPEAKER_00 (0:02) Today I'm talking to Maya, who runs a tiny bakery on the SPEAKER_00 (0:05) corner of Mill Street. SPEAKER_01 (0:07) Thanks for having me. SPEAKER_01 (0:08) It's really small, just two ovens and a counter. SPEAKER_00 (0:12) So how does a normal day start for you?
1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,680 [SPEAKER_00] Welcome back to Small Shop Stories. 2 00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:05,320 [SPEAKER_00] Today I'm talking to Maya, who runs a tiny bakery on the 3 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:06,320 [SPEAKER_00] corner of Mill Street.
Checked against the script, 4 of 189 words differed — a 2.1% word error rate, counting "80" written for "eighty" as an error — and all 14 speaker turns were labelled correctly. This was clean speech; noisy recordings and people talking over each other score lower. See the full transcript and how it was scored

Frequently asked questions
Does it get the Polish diacritics right (ą, ć, ę, ł, ń, ó, ś, ż, ź)?
Yes. The output uses proper Polish spelling with all diacritics, so words mean what they should and paste and search work correctly rather than collapsing into bare Latin letters.
Can it keep up with fast, consonant-heavy speech?
Yes, on clear audio it keeps up well. Where speech is fast or overlaps, click any line in the editor to replay that exact moment and confirm a tricky word, then move on.
Can it subtitle Polish videos?
Yes. Transcripts are timestamped, so export SRT or VTT and put them straight on the video. The Polish transcript can also be translated into 134+ languages for free, on every plan. The translation keeps the original timings, so a translated SRT lines up with the video too.
Polish isn't in the language menu — how do I make sure it's detected?
Leave Audio language on Auto-detect: Polish is recognised automatically. Detection listens to roughly the first 30 seconds, so if your recording opens with an English intro, music or a long silence, trim that part first — otherwise the file may be treated as another language.
Can it label speakers in a Polish meeting or interview?
Yes. Turn on Detect speakers before transcribing; it separates voices by how they sound, so it works the same for any language. If you know how many people speak, set Number of speakers (2–8) — that helps most in meetings and round-table discussions, where voices overlap and the automatic count can merge two similar speakers.
