Why VOMO AI Is the Premier Tool for te reo Māori Audio

Instant preview of your audio file

Upload your Maori language audio to get an immediate transcription preview. Registration is only required to save, share, or export your work.

Mastery of macrons (Tohutō) for true accuracy

Our AI is specifically trained to distinguish between short and long vowels, accurately transcribing all macrons (ā, ē, ī, Ō, ū). This is crucial for correct spelling and meaning in te reo Māori.

Understands Maori-English language mix

For modern audio where speakers naturally mix te reo Māori and New Zealand English, our AI accurately identifies and transcribes both languages for a true-to-life transcript.

Automatic speaker labeling for discussions

In audio with multiple speakers, like podcasts, interviews, or hui recordings, our AI can automatically detect and label each person, providing crucial context for your transcript.

Create searchable audio archives

Transform hours of kōrero, waiata (songs), and whakapapa (genealogy) recordings into a fully searchable text database, making invaluable cultural knowledge easy to access and study.

It is perfect for researchers, linguists, iwi (tribal) organizations, government agencies, podcasters, and students dedicated to the preservation and analysis of te reo Māori.
