Is it possible to upload existing transcriptions to generate summary reports?

You can analyze text that you've already transcribed elsewhere, such as Zoom cloud transcripts or human-generated outputs, without needing to pay for transcription services again.

Upload Existing Transcripts

Overview

You can analyze text that you've already transcribed elsewhere, such as Zoom cloud transcripts or human-generated outputs, without needing to pay for transcription services again.

This feature allows you to leverage existing transcription data to gain insights and reports, saving you time and resources.

How It Works

You have two primary methods for uploading your existing text:

  • Upload Text Feature: Use the dedicated "Upload Text" option.

  • Import SRT/VTT: Import an SRT or VTT file alongside your media.

Getting Started

To access this feature, go to Uploads β†’ Text Analysis in your dashboard.

Methods

Here are the ways you can bring your existing text into the platform:

  1. Text Note: Copy and paste your text directly into a "New Text Note". Once added, you can run Magic Prompts, Sentiment analysis, and Named Entity Recognition (NER) on this text, just as you would with a media file.

  2. Align Audio: If you have both the audio file and its corresponding transcript, upload the audio. Then, select the option "I already have a transcript" (if available in your plan) to sync the audio and text.

  3. CSV Import: For bulk analysis, you can upload rows of text (e.g., survey responses) via CSV. Each row will be treated as an individual text note for analysis.

Prerequisites

Ensure your files are in one of the following formats:

  • Text file (.txt, .docx)

  • Caption file (.srt, .vtt)

Troubleshooting

Formatting: To help the AI detect topics more effectively, avoid submitting your text as one continuous block. Ensure there are clear paragraph breaks.

Next Steps

Ready to get started?

  • Login to your account and navigate to Uploads β†’ Text Analysis.

  • Try it out by uploading a text file or SRT/VTT.
