РусскийTranscription in groups
Add @ScribioBot to a group chat and it turns every voice message and video note into text by itself. Free chats get 10 a day, chats with Premium 50.
Voice messages are hard to read in a quiet office or a busy chat. Add @ScribioBot to a group and it writes out each voice message and video note as a reply, so everyone can read instead of listening.
How to set it up
- In the bot's private chat, tap Transcription in groups.
- Tap Add to group and pick the chat.
- Give the bot administrator rights.
From that moment the bot works on its own. It is on by default as soon as it is in the group.
What it does in a group
- It transcribes voice messages and round video notes. Audio files, video files and links are not transcribed in groups: use the bot's private chat for them.
- The text arrives as a reply to the voice message. In a forum, it goes to the same topic.
- A long recording comes as a file instead of a message.
- There is no summary and no questions dialogue in a group.
Daily limit
A group has its own daily limit, counted over the last 24 hours:
| Chat | Transcriptions per day |
|---|---|
| Without a subscription | 10 |
| With a subscription | 50 |
A failed transcription is not counted. When the limit is reached, the bot says so in the chat. The limit depends on the subscription of the chat. See limits and plans.
Questions
Does the bot read every message in the group?
It reacts only to voice messages and video notes. Text, photos and other messages are ignored.
What about private chats?
The group mode is for group chats. In your own chat with the bot, send it a recording yourself: see voice messages and files to text.
Why does the bot say the limit is reached?
The chat has used its daily limit. It resets as the 24-hour window moves on; a chat subscription raises the limit to 50.
