Manually correct any AI inaccuracies for perfect results.

6. Use supported formats (MP3, MP4 or WAV)

For best compatibility, use high-quality audio formats.

7. Avoid background noise & speak clearly

Clearer input leads to significantly better transcription output.

Sidebar swap

When you are on /speech-to-text/*, the dashboard shell swaps:

• System Switcher auto-syncs to Speech to Text (Faheem).
• The sidebar shows Your Files, the live STT file list.
• + Create Agent in the topbar becomes + Transcribe Audio, with three options: Upload File (cyan), Live Transcription (green), Record Audio (red).
• The breadcrumb on the editor page reads Speech to Text (Faheem) › file name.

Recent files

Below the formats strip the dashboard also surfaces a Latest from the library section pulled from the same source as the sidebar. Each row clicks through to the Transcript Editor and exposes the 3-dot actions menu (export, pin, rename, delete).

Common questions

Which method should I pick?

Upload File is for audio you already have on disk. Live Transcription is for transcribing while you speak (your browser does the work). Record Audio opens the same modal as Live Transcription, the difference is intent: Live Transcription is meant for note-taking, Record Audio is meant for capturing a session you’ll review later.

Is Live Transcription the same quality as Upload File?

Upload File uses the Faheem engine and is generally more accurate, especially for Arabic and dialects. Live Transcription uses your browser’s built-in speech recognition which varies by browser. For the most accurate transcript, record audio first then upload it.

What's the maximum length I can transcribe?

5 hours per file, with a 500 MB file size limit. If your audio is longer, split it into parts before uploading.

Where do my transcribed files go?

Into your File Library and into the Your Files sidebar list (which only shows on Speech to Text pages). Each file is private to your Wittify account.

Why is Faheem's accuracy better for Arabic?

The engine was trained Arabic-first, with strong support for the major Arabic dialects (Egyptian, Saudi, Levantine, Maghrebi, Gulf, and others). It also handles code-switching between Arabic and English natively, which most generic engines don’t do well.

Can I transcribe a meeting in two languages at once?

Yes, Faheem handles code-switched audio without you having to do anything special. Pick Auto Detect in the language dropdown, or pick the dominant language. The engine still picks up the second language wherever it appears.
