Researchers, PhD students, and students across all disciplines.

The technical level is basic to intermediate. The app is beginner-friendly and requires no technical background. 

Dictaphone is a new application being introduced on UCloud this November. It allows researchers to securely record and transcribe interviews and conversations directly from their own devices – making the interview process easier and more time-efficient.

Key features:

• Record directly from your device
  Use Dictaphone to capture interviews and conversations straight from your laptop or smartphone. The user interface is simple to use and optimised for viewing on both small and large screens.
• No local storage – full data security
  All recordings are streamed live to the secure UCloud backend. Nothing is saved on your device, which means you can safely handle sensitive data without worrying about your data being stored in an unsafe location.
• Built-in transcription
  Dictaphone includes built-in transcription functionality, enabling you to easily convert speech to text and streamline your interview process.
• Speaker recognition
  The app can distinguish between multiple speakers in the same recording, making transcripts easier to read and analyse for interviews or group discussions. 

The Dictaphone app is designed for researchers across all disciplines who record audio as part of their work. It supports different workflows – whether you prefer to transcribe after each question in your research process or after the full interview, you can use Dictaphone. You can also switch languages, making it ideal for both Danish and international projects.
