Frequently asked questions
Why did my recording come out as WEBM?
Most browsers save recordings made with their built-in microphone capture (the MediaRecorder API) as WEBM by default — including VoxaType's own Voice Recorder tool. It's normal, not a broken export.
Does this only work with WEBM files?
No — it also accepts MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, OGG, and FLAC. This page is tuned for WEBM specifically since it's the default output of most browser-based recording tools.
Is it free?
Yes. It's free with no account required, limited to a fair-use number of transcriptions per hour to keep it available for everyone.
What's the file size and length limit?
Up to 200MB and 90 minutes per file on the free tier.
Is my file stored on your servers?
No. It's processed in memory during transcription and discarded immediately after — never written to disk or a database.
