Questions, answered
Can ScribeClear transcribe French?
Yes. A file that starts uploading on this page is set to French; in the app, choose French when you add a file. Your first 3 transcriptions are free, with no credit card.
How accurate is French transcription?
In our tests on FLEURS read-speech clips, 7.6%–8.8% of words were wrong (measured 1 November 2026). Recordings with noise or people talking over each other score worse, and you can fix any word in the editor while you listen.
Does it label speakers in French?
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.
Is there a more accurate mode for French?
Yes. Most accurate mode covers French. It uses a larger model for accents, noise and crosstalk, and takes a little longer.
Can I translate a French 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.
