Frequently Asked Questions
Paste the Google Podcasts episode URL into STT.ai. We fetch the audio stream directly, transcribe the full episode (including long-form shows), and give you timestamps plus speaker labels for the host and guests. Example Google Podcasts link format: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/abc123/episode/def456
No — STT.ai reads publicly-available Google Podcasts content directly from the URL. Private or age/region-gated Google Podcasts content has to be downloaded manually with the original account first, then uploaded as a file.
Yes. STT.ai includes 600 free minutes/month — usable for Google Podcasts URLs exactly like uploaded files. Paid plans starting at $5/month extend per-item length limits.
Free users get up to 1 hour per audio/podcast; paid plans extend that to 8+ hours — which covers full Google Podcasts episodes, multi-part lectures, and back-catalog binges in a single pass.
Google Podcasts hosts on-demand files rather than live broadcasts, so transcription works on the stored audio/podcast once it's uploaded. For genuinely live audio, use STT.ai's live-transcription tool pointed at the source stream instead.
DRM-protected Google Podcasts content cannot be transcribed — we don't bypass DRM. For those, capture the audio through your OS (system audio recorder, OBS) and upload the resulting file directly.
Yes. 100+ languages, auto-detected by default. For mixed-language Google Podcasts content, our models handle language switches mid-clip.
Yes. Diarization separates host(s) from guest(s) on every Google Podcasts episode, so interviews and panel shows come back with clean per-speaker turns you can rename.
Export Google Podcasts transcripts as DOCX, PDF, TXT, or JSON for notes, sharing, and archiving — plus SRT/VTT if you later pair the audio with video. Most Google Podcasts users reach for DOCX or PDF.
Google Podcasts URL transcription accuracy tracks the source audio quality — clean studio audio reaches 93-95% with our best models; low-bitrate streams or noisy field recordings land lower.
Google Podcasts transcripts are private to your account by default. Pro plans add client-side encryption — even STT.ai can't read them without your key. Source audio is deleted after transcription.
Yes. Submit many Google Podcasts URLs at once through the REST API or in-app batch upload — each is queued and you get an email per finish. Built for podcast back-catalogs, full course archives, and Google Podcasts channel migrations.
Beyond Google Podcasts, STT.ai supports 1,300+ platforms — including Spotify, SoundCloud, Apple Podcasts, and Simplecast. The /transcribe/ directory lists every supported source.
