Read the full accuracy reportWhy Choose Cockatoo for Korean Audio and Video
Handles Korean Honorifics and Spacing Automatically
Korean speech includes honorifics and spacing patterns that generic tools miss. Cockatoo applies automatic punctuation and capitalization, keeping the natural flow of Korean conversation without manual cleanup.
Upload WhatsApp Voice Notes and Phone Recordings Directly
WhatsApp voice notes and phone recordings upload in their native OPUS and OGG formats. No conversion needed. Drop in a voice message from a Korean client call and get a transcript back in seconds.
Cockatoo handles the technical work so you can focus on the content.
Two Terabytes of Storage and File Transfer Included
Cockatoo Drive gives you 2 TB of storage and file transfer bundled into your subscription. Store your transcripts, audio files and documents in one place, then share them with clients or collaborators without paying for a separate cloud service.
One workflow, one login, one bill.
Works on Mixed-Language Calls Without Changing Settings
Cockatoo detects and transcribes mixed Korean and English speech in the same recording automatically.
Choose Detect language for automatic language identification. You can override it per file if needed, but most users never touch the setting.
When You Need Audio Turned Into Text
Turn Interviews and Research Recordings Into Searchable Text
Researchers and journalists upload Korean interview recordings and get accurate transcripts with speaker labels in minutes. One hour of audio transcribes in about 30 seconds, so you can move from recording to analysis without the manual typing.
Speaker recognition separates each voice automatically. Rename speakers in the editor and every line updates across the transcript.
Turn Business Calls Into Searchable Records
Client calls, team meetings and phone recordings become searchable text files you can reference later. Upload the recording, download the transcript as DOCX or PDF, and file it with the rest of your project documentation.
Timestamps let you jump back to specific moments in the audio. No more scrubbing through a 40-minute call to find the line about budget approval.
Caption Videos for Social Media and Training
Video files have their audio extracted automatically. Upload an MP4 or MOV, get the transcript, then export as SRT subtitles ready to upload to YouTube, Vimeo or your learning management system.
Files come back with every timestamp intact. No manual syncing required.
Turn Lectures Into Study Notes
Students and educators turn lecture recordings into study notes. Upload the audio from a Korean language class or university lecture and get a clean transcript with paragraph breaks, not a wall of text.
The highest-accuracy modes carry a weekly usage limit shown in Settings; unlimited modes remain available when it is hit. 20 files per upload batch.
Accuracy You Can Count On
Published Accuracy Tests
Published accuracy tests for 36 languages, including Korean, are available. Each test includes methodology and licensed audio examples so you can verify the claims yourself.
Handles Regional Accents and Dialects
Regional accents and dialects are part of the training data. Cockatoo transcribes Seoul standard Korean, Busan satoori and other regional variations without requiring you to specify the dialect in advance.
The model adapts to speaker variation within the same recording.
Transcribes Through Background Noise and Crosstalk
Background noise, overlapping speakers and ambient sound are handled automatically. Upload any audio or video file and get an editable transcript back.
No need to clean the audio file first.
Upload the raw recording from a busy office, a cafe or a phone call with static. The transcript comes back clean, with speaker labels intact.
Test Your Own Files Before Paying
No credit card required. Test Cockatoo on your own accent, recording quality and file types before committing to a subscription.
Most users know within the first upload whether the accuracy meets their needs.
Check the language-specific results and listen to the original recording.
