Transcript and script
In closed beta · Not yet on sale
The script is the transcript of your recording, and editing it edits the video. Rooster is in closed beta and not on sale yet; these guides describe the app its testers are using now.
Transcribe a video on your Mac
How Rooster transcribes a recording on your Mac, the one-time speech model download, choosing a language or engine, and transcribing again.
Correct the transcript without changing the video
Fix a misheard word or name in a Rooster transcript, correct every place it appears at once, type over the script in Correct mode, and undo a correction.
Restore words you cut
Every cut in Rooster leaves a ¦ mark in the script. Find it, see how long the cut was, and bring the words and video back - or undo a batch of cuts at once.
Remove filler words
Find every um and uh in a Rooster transcript, listen to each one, and cut the ones you approve from the video in one step you can undo.
Shorten long pauses
Find the long gaps between words in a Rooster recording and shorten them all to a length you choose, or trim the silence at the start and end.
Teach Rooster to spell names your way
Add names, brands and jargon to Rooster's transcription glossary so every new transcript spells them your way, and undo a respelling you did not want.
