Word error rate (WER) counts substitutions, deletions, and insertions relative to the reference text. Lower is better. These results measure transcription text, not speaker labeling or formatting.

The sample is one FLEURS recording; the figures summarize the full language evaluation. Internal recordings informed provider selection and are an in-sample diagnostic. Results vary with recording quality and dialect.

Why Cockatoo for Indonesian Audio and Video

Speed and volume without limits

Cockatoo transcribes one hour of Indonesian audio in about 30 seconds, with no monthly hour caps for V4-Fast on paid plans. Single users have transcribed over a million hours on one Pro subscription.

Speaker recognition that updates every line

Cockatoo separates and labels every voice in Indonesian recordings automatically. Rename a speaker once and every line they spoke updates across the entire transcript. No more guessing who said what in meetings, interviews, or multi-speaker recordings.

Storage and file transfer bundled in

Cockatoo Drive gives you 2 TB of storage and file transfer capacity with your subscription. Keep transcripts as an archive, share files with collaborators, or move recordings between devices without paying for separate cloud storage.

Files stay in your account until you delete them. No expiration dates, no forced cleanup after 30 days.

Indonesian Transcription for Every Workflow

Interview and research transcripts

Upload Indonesian interview recordings and get a transcript with speaker labels, timestamps, and paragraph breaks.

Video captions and subtitles

Drop in an Indonesian video file and Cockatoo extracts the audio, transcribes it, and delivers a clean SRT subtitle file with timestamps. No need to separate audio from video or transcode anything.

Captions export with speaker labels and paragraph formatting intact. Ready to upload to YouTube, Vimeo, or your video platform.

Meeting and call notes

Turn Indonesian meeting recordings into searchable text with speaker labels and timestamps. The transcript shows who said what and when. Pull quotes or action items without replaying the entire file.

Mixed-language calls work without changing settings. If the conversation switches between Indonesian and English, Cockatoo handles both in the same transcript.

Podcast and media transcripts

Podcasters upload Indonesian episodes and get transcripts with speaker labels, paragraph breaks, and timestamps in seconds. Backlogs clear fast.

Export to TXT for show notes, DOCX for editing, or SRT for captions. The speaker labels alone save an hour per episode by cutting out manual attribution.

AI Notes for summarization and editing

After transcription, use the AI Notes editor to summarize Indonesian transcripts, pull key points, or reformat the text without leaving the browser. The editor works directly on the transcript you just created.

Summaries and edits stay in the same file as the original transcript. Export the edited version or keep both for reference.

Accuracy on Indonesian Accents, Crosstalk, and Ambient Noise

How the accuracy tests work

Cockatoo runs Indonesian accuracy tests on the same public benchmark researchers use to compare transcription engines, called FLEURS, plus real-world recordings with background noise and accents. Cockatoo publishes methodology and licensed audio examples per language.

The tests measure word error rate on both clean benchmark audio and the messy recordings people actually upload. Verify the claims before uploading your own files.

Handling accents and dialect variation

Indonesian transcripts handle regional accents and dialect variation without collapsing. The engine is trained on diverse Indonesian speech and recognizes pronunciation differences across Jakarta, Surabaya, Medan, and other regions.

Accuracy holds up on the accents that break cheaper tools.

Crosstalk and overlapping speakers

When multiple speakers talk over each other, Cockatoo separates the voices and labels each speaker's lines. Crosstalk lowers accuracy slightly compared to clean audio, but the transcript stays usable and the speaker attribution holds.

Ambient noise and low-quality recordings

Cockatoo handles background noise, phone recordings, and low-bitrate audio without requiring cleanup or noise reduction before upload. Accuracy drops on very noisy files, but the transcript is still faster and more accurate than typing it out by hand.

Follow the transcript alongside audio playback and correct any sections where the recording was unclear.

Audio and video formats supported

Cockatoo accepts common audio files: MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, OGG, and OPUS. Plus video files like MP4, MOV, WEBM, AVI, and MKV. Video files have their audio extracted automatically, with no transcoding step required.

OPUS and OGG support means WhatsApp voice notes upload directly without conversion. Drop in your recordings and Cockatoo handles the rest.

File length and upload limits

Free accounts handle files up to 30 minutes each, with 3 transcripts daily. Multi-hour recordings and large backlogs process without hitting limits.

Upload up to 20 files at once. The batch processes in parallel. Very heavy same-day uploads may process slower, but there are no hard monthly hour limits for V4-Fast on paid plans.

Bulk export lets you download multiple transcripts at once. The in-browser editor supports sharing transcripts via link without downloading anything.
