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?

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

Why ScribeToAny

- Nasal Vowels & Diacritics: ã, õ, ç, á, ê, í and ú come out as proper Portuguese spelling.
- Casual to Professional: Works across podcasts, lectures and business calls; noisy recordings benefit from Restore audio.

Frequently asked questions
Does it distinguish pt-BR from pt-PT?
One Portuguese setting covers both; the model adapts to the speaker's variant and spelling follows common usage.
Can I transcribe WhatsApp voice messages?
Yes — export the voice note (OPUS/OGG) and upload it directly; both formats are supported.
Is there a free tier?
Yes: 2 transcriptions per day and 100 minutes per month, free.
Should I choose Portuguese or leave Auto-detect on?
If you know the recording is Portuguese, pick Português under Audio language. Auto-detect decides from roughly the first 30 seconds, so a file that opens with music, silence or an English intro can be read as another language — choosing the language skips that guess. Brazilian and European Portuguese both use this option; WhatsApp voice notes that start with a few seconds of silence are the typical case where it helps.
Can it separate speakers in a Portuguese podcast 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 podcasts and group interviews, where voices overlap and the automatic count can merge two similar speakers.
