This is the most helpful comment here. I still don’t understand what the tool is for though. Up until now I assumed it would allow me to get automatic transcriptions, including breaking them down by speaker.

I was looking into that space recently and I have used otter.ai for transcriptions which gives you 6000 minutes/month for 8 USD, which is insanely cheap in that space. Their British language model is quite good as well. I’ve bulk exported generated srt/vtt files from my fav podcasts and using tinysearch that was posted here recently with ableplayer to provide audio full text search of my Jekyll published podcasts pos…

Awesome. Thanks for the info. I look forward to trying out your suggestion.

If I had a subtitle file to use as best guesses for sentence segmentation, could this help extract clips and clean up start and end alignment?

Interesting usecase! Currently, the tool allows creation of datapoint along with reference transcripts. From what I understand, you wish to fix the subtitle start and end time while keeping the transcription for that segment same. If yes, we plan to add an enhancement where you can pass annotations aka segments with transcripts. This should solve your usecase.

That would be awesome. My hacky solution was a waveform and start and end sliders. It would just iterate through and you could accept, reject, or modify the times and text.
