FAQS

Do I need an account to test the transcription?

No account is necessary for an initial preview. Just upload a video to see our technology in action. Registration unlocks the full features like saving, sharing, and speaker labels.

How well does it handle 'Swanglish' (Swahili-English mix)?

Extremely well. Our AI is designed to handle code-switching, accurately transcribing both the Swahili and English parts of a sentence in their correct context. This is crucial for modern East African media.

How do I create subtitles for my Swahili YouTube channel?

After VOMO generates the transcript with timestamps, copy the text. You can then paste it into a plain text editor and save it with an .srt extension, following the standard subtitle format. The timestamps we provide make this easy.

Can your tool tell who is speaking in the video?

Yes. Our AI can distinguish between different voices and automatically label the speakers in the transcript (e.g., Speaker 1, Speaker 2), which is invaluable for interviews, documentaries, and meetings.

Who is this tool best for?

It is perfect for East African content creators, journalists, NGOs, filmmakers, and educators who need to create accurate text from their video content for subtitling, analysis, or repurposing.
