Cantonese at a glance

Its own name
粵語
Script
Chinese characters
Speaker labels
Yes. Speakers are told apart by their voices, not their words, so labels work in any language. Our tests so far were on English recordings.
Most accurate mode
Not for Cantonese yet. Cantonese files use the standard mode.
Error rate we measured
Not measured yet. Accuracy varies between languages, so try a short file first.
Speech model
Whisper large-v3-turbo, an open model. The open models we use
Pieces
Cut into pieces of 15 seconds or less, as for Japanese, Chinese, Korean and Thai: in our Japanese tests, longer pieces lost speech.
Spaces
Cantonese is written without spaces between words, and transcripts keep it that way.
Close languages
Cantonese and Chinese each have their own setting. Choose the one that's spoken.

What Cantonese looks like

人人生而平等,喺尊严同埋权利上一律平等。佢哋有理性同埋良心,而且应当以兄弟关系嘅精神相对待。
Article 1 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in Cantonese, from the UDHR in Unicode project. It shows the script; it isn't a ScribeClear transcript. UDHR in Unicode: udhr_yue.xml

Questions, answered

Can ScribeClear transcribe Cantonese?

Yes. A file that starts uploading on this page is set to Cantonese; in the app, choose Cantonese when you add a file. Your first 3 transcriptions are free, with no credit card.

How accurate is Cantonese transcription?

We haven't measured Cantonese ourselves yet. Accuracy varies a lot between languages, so try a short file first: your first 3 transcriptions are free.

Does it label speakers in Cantonese?

Yes. Speakers are told apart by their voices, not their words, so labels are made the same way in any language. Our tests so far were on English recordings.

Can I translate a Cantonese transcript?

Yes, on Unlimited. Translate the transcript into another language and download it as subtitles, text or Word.

How do the 3 free transcriptions work?

Upload any 3 files, with no credit card. Each one is transcribed in full, with speakers and timestamps, and you see the first 30 minutes. Shorter files you get whole.

Is my audio private?

Your files are private to your account and encrypted when they're sent and stored. You can delete a file, or your whole account, at any time.
