Short answer

How can I track my transcription progress?

Your AI agent checks the processing queue to see which files are still running and which are finished. You'll get real-time updates on job status and immediate access to completed text. This allows you to move straight to editing or analysis once the work is done.

Where every update lands.

Tracking outcomes

The AI organizes your media queue into these specific categories.

ACTIVE

In-progress jobs

The AI identifies files currently being processed. You'll know exactly what's still running in the background.

READY

Completed transcripts

The AI pulls a list of all successfully processed audio. These files are ready for your immediate use.

DETAILS

Specific file data

The AI fetches deep metadata for a specific job. This gives you the exact content of a finished transcription.

MANUAL

Human review needed

If a job fails or hits an error, the AI flags it. You'll need to step in to troubleshoot or re-upload.

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI start a new transcription?

    No. The AI can only monitor, list, and retrieve details for existing transcription jobs.

  • 02

    Can the AI delete a transcription once it's done?

    No. The AI has no tools to delete or remove files from the queue.

  • 03

    How does the AI know if a file failed?

    The AI checks the list of in-progress jobs. If a job is no longer in that list and isn't in the successful list, it's a failed job that requires your attention.

  • 04

    Can I ask the AI to edit the transcript text?

    No. The AI can only retrieve the transcription details as they exist in the system.

  • 05

    Does the AI work with video files too?

    Yes. The AI tracks the progress of both audio and video files through the processing queue.
