For most files, TurboScribe is a good place to start: it is simple, supports Russian, long recordings, video, and export. For meetings, Fireflies AI or Otter ai can be more convenient; for podcasts and editing workflows, consider Descript, Riverside, or Sonix.
Yes, some services offer free minutes or a trial mode. Free access usually limits file length, the number of minutes per day, or processing speed. For a one-time task, that is often enough.
The most common supported formats are MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, and MOV. If a service does not accept your file, you can first convert it to MP3 or MP4 and then upload it again.
Yes, but the quality depends on the service and the recording. TurboScribe, Whisper, and Sonix are better suited for Russian speech than tools designed mainly for English-language meetings.
Improve the source file: reduce noise, choose the correct language, split a long recording into parts, and manually check names, terms, and numbers. The cleaner the voice and the less background noise, the more accurate the result.
Transcription works with an existing file or a recorded meeting, while dictation turns live speech into text as you speak. For an old recording, use a transcription service; for writing by voice, use dictation.
