Test Long Audio Files

Overview

Before committing to a paid plan, it's important to ensure Speak AI meets your needs. This guide explains how you can evaluate the transcription accuracy on a substantial audio file, even if it exceeds the free trial limits.

By testing with a longer file, you can gain confidence in the quality and features of Speak AI, ensuring it's the right solution for your projects.

How It Works

Speak AI offers a free trial with a limited duration, typically around 30 minutes. If your audio file is longer than this, you might need to upgrade your plan or add credits to process the entire file. However, you can still test the quality effectively without processing the full length.

Steps

Follow these steps to evaluate Speak AI with your audio files:

  1. Check Balance: Review your "Remaining Minutes" displayed in the dashboard header to understand your current credit or trial balance.

  2. Upload File: Upload your long audio file. The system will provide an estimate of the time or cost required for processing.

  3. Insufficient Balance?: If your balance is insufficient, the system will prompt you to upgrade. As an alternative, you can upload a 10-minute clip of your file to test the quality for free.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues, here's a common problem and its solution:

  • "Upload Blocked": This message indicates that your file exceeds the duration limit of the free tier.

Next Steps

Ready to get started? Here's what to do next:

  • Login to your account and navigate to the dashboard to check your remaining minutes.

  • Try it out by uploading a portion of your long audio file to test transcription quality.

  • Explore the options to see how Speak AI fits your workflow.
