Built for AMR audio
Compressed and phone-grade audio is harder than studio recordings. AskSia stays accurate on AMR thanks to context-aware processing for names, numbers, and conversational speech, with 95% or higher accuracy on clear AMR.
AskSia transcribes AMR audio files (Android voice recordings, voicemails, old phone archives) into accurate text in seconds. Drop an .amr or .3ga file into the web app, upload from your phone, or paste a direct AMR link. AskSia handles both AMR-NB and AMR-WB without conversion, returning a clean transcript with speaker labels and an optional translation in 40+ languages. Free to start.
To transcribe an AMR file to text, you upload the .amr or .3ga file directly to AskSia and the AI processes the audio with speech recognition tuned for compressed phone-grade recordings. The output is a timestamped transcript with up to 10 speakers labeled automatically, ready to translate into more than 40 languages or export as TXT, DOCX, or SRT subtitles. AMR-NB and AMR-WB are both supported, with no need to convert to MP3 or WAV first. The free plan covers AMR files up to 30 minutes, useful for voice memos, voicemails, and short interviews.
Most transcribers reject AMR or insist on conversion first. AskSia accepts .amr and .3ga directly and is tuned for the compressed phone-grade audio AMR is built for.
Compressed and phone-grade audio is harder than studio recordings. AskSia stays accurate on AMR thanks to context-aware processing for names, numbers, and conversational speech, with 95% or higher accuracy on clear AMR.
Drop the .amr or .3ga in as it is, no codec changes, no re-encoding. AskSia handles AMR-NB and AMR-WB out of the box, plus 3GP audio containers (.3ga) commonly used by Samsung and other Android recorders.
AskSia identifies up to 10 distinct speakers in a single AMR recording, color-codes their turns, and timestamps each one. Useful for voicemails left by multiple people, conference calls, and family or group recordings.
Once an AMR is transcribed, the AI assistant Sia can pull out callback information, action items, key dates, summaries, or quick notes. The transcript becomes structured information you can act on instead of an audio playback you have to listen to twice.
Drag the .amr or .3ga file into AskSia or click upload to pick it from your computer or phone. AMR-NB, AMR-WB, and Samsung 3GA voice recordings are all supported without conversion.
AskSia auto-detects the source language. Pick any target language for translation, and the transcriber identifies up to 10 different speakers in the recording without manual setup.
Read the transcript with timestamps and speaker labels. Search the recording, ask Sia for a summary or callback notes, and export as TXT, DOCX, SRT, or send to Google Docs.
Drag and drop on the laptop, upload from your phone, or paste a direct AMR link. One library holds everything.
Drag a folder of AMR voicemails, voice recordings, or old phone archives into the AskSia web app and process them in sequence. The split-panel layout shows the transcript on one side and the AI chat on the other, useful for triaging callbacks or building a searchable archive.
Open the app and pick an AMR file from your phone library, share sheet, or files app. Many Android voice recorder and voicemail apps export to AMR, and AskSia transcribes them in seconds, syncing the result to your Web App library.
Many Android voice recorder apps save voice memos as AMR or 3GA. Drop them into AskSia to turn quick spoken thoughts into structured text in seconds, useful for writers, founders, students, and field workers.
Carrier visual voicemail systems and many PBX systems save AMR recordings. Upload an AMR voicemail to read the message instead of replaying it, with the caller, reason, and callback summarized by the AI assistant.
Recordings from older Nokia, Samsung, and Sony Ericsson feature phones often come as AMR. AskSia turns these legacy files into searchable text, useful for digitizing personal archives or preserving family history.
Some field-research devices and apps default to AMR for compact storage. AskSia transcribes them with speaker labels and timestamps, ready to quote, code in NVivo or Atlas.ti, or analyze.
Old language-learning programs and dictation devices often saved practice audio as AMR. AskSia transcribes the original audio and can translate it side by side, useful for learners returning to materials they already own.
Some call-center systems archive interactions in AMR for storage efficiency. AskSia transcribes those recordings (with appropriate consent and compliance) for search, training, and quality review.
Most transcription tools are built for meetings. AskSia is built for how students actually learn: bilingual, fast-moving, context-heavy.
