01 / How it works

Readable transcript, traceable timing.

The bundle records detected language, duration, time-coded segments, quality evidence, and the actual Credits settled. Timing is checked against the decoded source.

01

Validate

Markovo checks extension, MIME, media signature, account access, file size, and the confirmed Credit ceiling.

02

Transcribe

Speech becomes ordered segments with stable timestamps. Temporary processing failures fail safely and release reserved Credits.

03

Review

Download output.md or the full bundle with metadata, source map, quality report, manifest, and ZIP.

02 / What you get

A transcription Beta with explicit boundaries.

Capability

audio-to-markdown

Browser, API, CLI, and MCP share one account, Credits balance, History, and bundle.

Best input

Clear speech

Low noise, audible voices, and a consistent recording level produce the safest result.

Billing

Actual decoded audio milliseconds

Credit v2 bills 1 Credit per decoded audio minute with a 0.3 Credit minimum and never exceeds the confirmed ceiling. Failed jobs cost 0.

Review and privacy

Names, overlap, and bounded processing

Proper nouns, accents, music, crosstalk, and speaker diarization can need review. Audio may be processed by Cloudflare Workers AI under the standard retention and deletion policy.

03 / Source details

Use the same transcript capability from code or an agent.

Review output from the Audio to Markdown Converter.

Time-coded Markdown helps a reviewer return to the recording, but transcription remains sensitive to sound quality and speech context.

HEAR

Prefer audible, consistent speech

Low noise, close microphones, and limited overlap produce safer results. Accents, music, crosstalk, proper nouns, abbreviations, and weak recordings may require correction.

TIME

Use timestamps as navigation

Segment timing supports review and citation; it is not speaker diarization. Markovo does not promise to identify who spoke each line.

CHECK

Verify consequential details

Compare names, numbers, dates, commitments, and technical terms with the original audio before publishing or using the transcript as evidence.

05 / Ways to use your Markdown

Use transcripts with the recording available.

For interviews, meetings, research, legal, medical, financial, or public statements, verify important wording and retain the original audio under the applicable consent and retention rules.

Audio to MD questions

What is a Audio to MD converter?

Audio to MD transcribes speech into a Markdown (.md) document with reviewable timestamps. It preserves a transcript rather than generating an AI summary.
