Check the original before you share
Fix names, numbers, and technical terms in the original transcript first so those mistakes don't carry over into your translations.
Audio translation
Translate the whole conversation in context.
KolWrite starts by creating a source transcript, keeps speakers and timestamps attached throughout, and translates between supported languages with the context needed for meetings, interviews, research, media, and customer conversations.

Why audio translation requires a source transcript
A plain block of translated text is hard to check. When you translate a transcript, you can still see who spoke, when they said it, and what the original wording was.
Keep the structure of the conversation
Speaker labels and timestamps carry over into the translation, letting reviewers jump back to that exact moment in the audio.
Pick your target language
Translate directly between supported languages rather than routing every recording through a single default language.
Do more with the translated text
Ask questions, generate summaries, make subtitles, or export documents while keeping everything tied to the original recording.
How teams use audio translation
Start from a single time-coded transcript to give different audiences what they need without redoing the work.
Meetings and interviews
Share the transcript in the spoken language with local participants, and give colleagues a translated version they can search and review.
Video and subtitle localization
Build translated subtitle tracks from the timed transcript and check each line against the original audio.
Research and education
Let reviewers in other languages read lectures, interviews, and field recordings while keeping the original source material intact.
Support and operations
Turn regional conversations into structured records that different teams can understand without losing local-language detail.
A translation process you can verify
Upload the recording
Bring in an audio or video file, or use a recording you already made in KolWrite.
Create the source transcript
Get the original speech down with speaker labels and timestamps before you translate.
Translate into a supported language
Create the translated version while keeping it connected to the original text.
Review and export
Double-check important terms, then summarize, create captions, or export your file.
Questions
Can KolWrite translate audio directly?
KolWrite first transcribes what was said and then translates that transcript. Working this way lets you check the output and keeps speakers, timestamps, and the original wording attached.
Can I translate from one non-English language to another?
Yes, as long as your chosen workflow supports both languages. You don't have to use English as the visible source or target language.
Does translation preserve speaker labels and timestamps?
Yes, the workflow is built to keep the translation tied to the structured source transcript, so you keep speaker labels and timing context.
Can I export translated subtitles or documents?
You can export in both subtitle and document formats. The exact options available depend on your workflow, platform, and account.
