Create your custom transcript dictionary

The Transcript Dictionary allows you to teach Tella's AI transcription which specific names, brands, and terms to recognize in your videos. By adding words to your dictionary, you ensure they're transcribed correctly every time.

How to use the Transcript Dictionary

Adding words to your dictionary:

  1. Click the dictionary icon in your transcript editor

  2. Type the word or term you want to add in the input field

  3. Press Enter or click Add to save it to your dictionary

  4. Repeat for any additional terms you want to include

  5. Click "Update transcript" for the transcript to update for your video

Once you've added terms to your dictionary, all future videos will automatically reference these entries during transcription. You don't need to add them again.

Current Limitations

The Transcript Dictionary is currently only available for English transcription. Support for additional languages is planned for the future.

This also only works for future videos you created. It does not retroactively apply to previous videos you've created. To run it for an existing video, click "Update transcript" in the dictionary popup.
