Listening to and reviewing conversation audio files can be time-consuming and inefficient. Voyc simplifies the process by converting your audio conversations into transcripts as conversations are uploaded to your channel. Transcription speeds up the review process and makes it easier to analyse key points from the conversation without the hassle of manual transcription. Voyc enables you to set up or configure how conversations should be transcribed and uploaded to your channel. In this article we will show you how to set up your transcription settings.
Getting Started with the Transcription
To get started with transcription, begin by setting up your transcription settings at organisation level. These settings will apply across your organisation but can later be customized for each individual channel as needed. This flexibility allows you to manage transcription preferences across the organisation while also enabling you to tailor settings to the specific needs of individual channels.
To set up organisationâs transcription settings, go to the navigation pane, select Settings to access your Organisation Settings page. Navigate to the Audio tab where you can access and manage your transcription requirements to align with your organisationâs needs.
Fill in the details, you can do so by following these steps:
1. Minimum Conversation Length: Specify the minimum length of a conversation that should be transcribed. Once done click save.
đTake note: Conversations shorter than the specified minimum conversation length will not be processed.
2. Minimum Dead-Air Length: Set the minimum duration of dead air that the system should detect before proceeding with transcription. Click save to apply this setting.
đTake note: Dead air length less than the specified number of seconds will not be detected.
3. Vocabulary Keywords: Add specific vocabulary keywords that are relevant to your context. For instance, any keywords that are industry-specific jargon than cannot be found in an English dictionary e.g. âiPodâ. Once done adding the keywords click add. A toaster message will appear in the right corner of your screen to confirm that youâve successfully added a keyword.

đTake note: Please note only users who have Admin and Owner permissions are able to configure Transcription settings.
Setting up Transcription settings at Channel level
Now that your organisationâs transcription settings are configured, you can set up specific transcription settings for individual channels within your organisation. These channel-level settings apply only to the selected channel, allowing you to tailor transcription to its unique needs. For example, if the Sales channel uses specific vocabulary, you can add these keywords to enhance transcription accuracy in conversations for that channel.
To set up channel transcription, go to the navigation pane, select Configurations, and then click on the Audio tab. This opens the channel transcription settings page, where you can configure settings based on the channelâs unique requirements.
Follow the same steps as when configuring organisation transcription settings to set up the Minimum Conversation Length, Minimum Dead-Air Length, and Vocabulary Keywords for your channel.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I adjust transcription settings if conversations are already uploaded
Can I adjust transcription settings if conversations are already uploaded
Yes, you can adjust the transcription settings even after conversations have been uploaded. However, changes to settings like Minimum Conversation Length, Minimum Dead-Air Length, or Vocabulary Keywords will only affect new conversations uploaded after the changes. Previously uploaded conversations will not be reprocessed with the new settings.
How can I further increase transcription accuracy?
How can I further increase transcription accuracy?
You can increase transcription accuracy by:
Adding more specific Vocabulary Keywords that are relevant to your conversations. This helps the system better recognize industry-specific terms or names.
Ensuring the audio quality is clear and free from excessive background noise, as poor audio quality can negatively impact transcription accuracy.
What happens if I upload a file that doesnât meet the Minimum Conversation Length?
What happens if I upload a file that doesnât meet the Minimum Conversation Length?
If you upload a conversation file that is shorter than the specified Minimum Conversation Length in your transcription settings, it will not be processed, and no transcript will be generated. To ensure all important conversations are transcribed, you may need to adjust the Minimum Conversation Length setting accordingly before uploading your files.
