How does Sonix compare to human transcription speed?

What affects transcription speed?

File size, audio quality, and current system demand can affect speed. Clear audio with minimal background noise transcribes fastest. Even with challenging audio, Sonix typically completes within 15-20 minutes per hour of content.

Can I transcribe multiple files at once?

Absolutely. Sonix supports batch uploads, processing multiple files in parallel. Upload your entire project at once and let Sonix work through the queue while you focus on other tasks.

How much faster is Sonix than typing it myself?
