Use Case

Transcribe Online Course Narration and Voiceovers to Text

Turn course voiceover audio into text with timestamps and summaries. Built for Nigerian online educators and course creators.

You've recorded twelve modules of course narration for your online class, and now you need written captions, a downloadable PDF for students, and a summary for your course landing page. Autrans transcribes your course voiceover into text with timestamps, so each module becomes searchable, students can jump to a specific point in a lesson, and you're not manually typing out hours of narration yourself. Nigerian educators teaching in English, Pidgin or a local language get transcripts that reflect how they actually taught the material, not a generic rewrite. Course creators building accessible content get a text version students can read alongside or instead of the audio, useful for learners studying with limited data or in noisy environments where audio isn't practical.

Benefits

  • Word-level timestamps let students jump straight to the part of a module they need to revisit
  • AI summaries turn each module into a short recap, useful for course landing pages or reviews
  • Topics extraction helps you organize long courses into a clear outline of what's covered where
  • Export as SRT or VTT to add captions directly to your course videos
  • Supports Nigerian English, Pidgin, Yoruba, Hausa and Igbo for courses taught in any of these
  • Custom vocabulary keeps course-specific terms and jargon consistent across every module
