About this tool

Japanese interviews, lectures, and internal meetings often mix names, honorifics, and specialized vocabulary. This page preselects Japanese recognition and sends the result to the same timestamped editor used by the core ViiTor product.

How it works

1

Add the Japanese recording

Upload a local audio or video file containing spoken Japanese.

2

Start with ja-JP

Japanese is preselected; configure speaker identification for dialogue-heavy material.

3

Review Japanese phrasing

Listen around each timestamp and correct names, terminology, or punctuation.

Frequently asked questions

Is Japanese selected automatically on this page?

Yes. The page passes ja-JP as its initial source language, and you can still change it.

Can I transcribe Japanese video as well as audio?

Yes. The uploader accepts common audio and video files and transcribes their spoken track.

Will the Japanese transcript be translated?

No. It remains a Japanese transcript because target-language translation is not currently available in this workflow.
