How is audio translated?

Audio translation has two steps: transcription (writing the speech down in its original language) and translation (moving the text into the target language). On this page, the first step is free and needs no account. Translation happens in the Transcription studio, where you can edit it segment by segment and get bilingual subtitles or documents.
