Creating a transcript

First, ensure you have a stable internet connection.

File types you can upload to Kaituhi include: .mp3, .mp4, .m4a, .wav, .aiff, .aac, .ogg and .wma.

If your file is an .mp4 video, Kaituhi will create a transcript from the audio component of the file.

To get started click the upload button in the top right menu.

From there, select your language, and team and folder to upload to. 

Drag and drop your file into the drop zone or click the select files button and choose your files. 

When you do this your file will start uploading. If you choose Māori as the Primary language Kaituhi will start automatically transcribing your file. 

From here you can preview your file and you can change your primary language while your file is uploading and if you're collaborating with others, you can choose who will be transcribing and reviewing the file.

To rename your transcription click the blue pencil.

Once your file is finished uploading you can click the "View Transcript" to view and start editing your transcript.

You can upload additional files while the first file is still uploading by clicking the "Kōwhiritia Select files" button at the bottom of the screen, or drag and drop additional files in to your browser window.

If uploading multiple files at once, all files will need to finish uploading before you can "View Transcript".
