TranscriptX documentation¶
TranscriptX is a local-first workbench for people who want to think with transcripts. You import files you already have, run analysis on your machine, and keep the results.
Use Import Transcript for JSON, SRT, VTT, and other supported formats. Need text from audio first? See Transcription.
See how it works: first analysis — import the sample, name speakers, run Balanced, read Overview.
Everyday jobs: Using TranscriptX.
Is this for me? How TranscriptX compares.
Privacy: files stay on your computer; optional local AI is Ollama and off by default.
The GitHub README is the same first-run story.
