A free account includes 3 tasks a day and 120 minutes a month. Your guest task and usage move to your account; signing up does not reset usage.
Automatic language detection handles the recording. Your selected language is translated automatically after transcription. Review the original and translation together. Video translation produces text and subtitles; it does not create a dubbed video.
From recording to translated text
- 01
Upload your English audio
Upload the original recording directly on this page. Use a file with clear speech and let automatic language detection identify the spoken language. Keep background music and overlapping voices as low as possible.
- 02
Check the English transcript
Read the original transcript and automatic translation on this page while listening to the recording. Check names, numbers, and missed words, then save any text corrections.
- 03
Translate into Japanese and export
The Japanese translation is generated automatically with your transcript. Compare it with the original and download TXT, SRT, or VTT directly. Sign in to save the task and access account export formats.
Make the translation useful
English calls often make participants explicit, while a natural Japanese translation may omit a repeated subject. Check that this does not make responsibilities ambiguous in the resulting notes. Decide how formal the Japanese should be for the intended reader, and review acronyms or product names for established Japanese usage. An English promise, suggestion, and request should remain distinct even when they use a similar Japanese sentence ending.
What to check in your recording
- Choose the Japanese register based on the intended recipient.
- Keep action owners clear when Japanese omits repeated subjects.

Before you upload
What should I review when translating English audio into Japanese?
Review whether a translated line is a commitment, a proposal, or a request. Check English phrasal verbs before deciding on Japanese wording, and retain familiar English product names where appropriate. Read action items separately to ensure an omitted Japanese subject does not obscure who should act.
Can I keep the English transcript as well?
Yes. The original transcript remains available in the task alongside the translation. Check it against the recording, correct errors, and select the original or translated version when exporting. A translation should not be treated as a word-for-word record of what the speaker said.
Can I translate a voice recording or podcast?
Yes. Upload a supported audio file rather than a link to an arbitrary website. Listen to quiet speakers and clipped sentence endings in the original transcript before translating. If several people speak, keep clear pauses between turns where possible.
Do I need an account, and is translation free?
Try one task a day without signing in, with up to 30 minutes per recording and 120 minutes a month. The selected translation is included. A free account allows 3 tasks a day and saves your results; guest usage is carried over.
Which export formats are available?
Guest results can be downloaded as TXT, SRT, or VTT. Sign in for DOCX, PDF, and CSV exports. SRT and VTT preserve segment timings for subtitles. Check terminology and subtitle readability before sharing the translated result.
