Export guide
Repurpose dialogue from a recorded video
Transcribe a filmed interview or presentation, then export to Word for an editorial pass. Mark the passages that can become an article, a training handout, or show notes. Check references to visible objects against the original video before quoting them on their own.
Create a review copy with source context
Enable section timestamps when reviewers will go back to the footage to check wording or delivery. In Word, add headings, comments, or still images where readers need context from the screen.
Add what viewers saw when the words depend on it
In a product demo, a line like “click here” may need the button name or a still image to make sense in a document. Review those sections against the footage and add context in Word. For direct quotations, mark editorial additions separately so readers can tell which words were spoken.
Keep a video transcript and a script separate
If the document will become a script for a new video, preserve a timed source copy first. In a second copy, organize the material into topics and cut repeated dialogue. The timed draft stays useful when an editor needs to locate a quote or confirm that the script accurately reflects the footage.
Prepare a Word draft from filmed dialogue
- Check references to slides, objects, and on-screen controls against the recording.
- Keep source times with passages an editor will need to verify.
- Add your editorial notes in the document before sending it for review.
Frequently asked questions
Which video formats can I convert to Word?
Speechyou accepts MP4, MOV, WebM, M4V, MPEG, and MPG uploads. The file needs speech in its audio track.
Does the Word document contain the video itself?
The DOCX contains the spoken transcript. Share the video separately when reviewers also need the visual context.
Can I add screenshots or headings to the export?
Yes. Open the DOCX in Word or a compatible editor and insert images, headings, and notes there. Use the original video to choose stills that match the relevant passage.
