Transcribe by Wreally

Transcribe by Wreally is a browser-based transcription platform with two primary modes. Automatic Transcription converts uploaded audio or video into machine-generated text, while Self Transcription combines a media player, editor, dictation, keyboard shortcuts, and playback controls.

The service is designed for interviews, meetings, lectures, phone recordings, podcasts, research projects, and other spoken-audio workflows. Self Transcription can play local media without uploading it, while automatic processing requires media uploads to the service.

Automatic transcription supports speaker identification, automatic timecodes, subtitle formatting, and machine-generated transcripts. Users can edit completed transcripts within the application before exporting them.

Self Transcription includes an integrated audio and video player, voice typing, keyboard shortcuts, playback speed controls, automatic looping, text expansion, browser-based auto-save, and foot-pedal controls.

Supported exports include Word documents, plain text, SRT subtitles, and WebVTT subtitles. The service also supports common media formats such as MP3, MP4, M4A, WAV, AAC, FLAC, MOV, OGG, WEBM, and WMA.

Self Transcription costs $20 per user annually. The plan includes the integrated editor and media player, unlimited voice typing, keyboard shortcuts, foot-pedal support, text expansion, and playback loops.

Automatic Transcription requires the $20 annual license and adds usage-based transcription at $6 per hour. The automatic plan includes machine transcription, timecodes, speaker identification, subtitle creation, and one-minute previews.

Wreally offers group licenses and volume discounts for larger purchases. Annual licenses do not automatically renew without explicit approval.

Does Transcribe by Wreally offer a free trial?

No public developer API was verified in the official product, pricing, or help documentation reviewed for this profile.

What platforms does it support?

Transcribe is delivered as a web application. Self Transcription is primarily supported in Google Chrome on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Automatic transcription supports Chrome, Firefox, and Edge. The vendor reports that many features also work in recent Safari versions.

Does it integrate with OneDrive?

Yes. The vendor documents uploading automatic-transcription files from OneDrive. This is an upload option rather than a broad, verified integration marketplace.

Can it create subtitles?

Yes. Automatic transcripts can be exported in SRT and WebVTT subtitle formats.

How private is the self-transcription workflow?

The vendor states that self-transcription audio is played from the user’s computer and typed text is stored in browser storage. Dictation sends voice samples to external servers, and automatic transcription requires uploaded media.
