Frequently Asked Questions

Are FileHop's audio tools really free?

Yes. All audio tools are free with no length limits or daily caps. AI transcription is coming soon.

Will AI transcription run offline?

That's the plan — transcription is coming soon and will use a local Whisper-based model so your recordings never leave your device.

What audio formats are supported?

MP3, WAV, FLAC, AAC, OGG, M4A, and more, on both input and output.

Will compressing audio lose quality?

Lossless formats like FLAC stay lossless. For MP3, you control the bitrate to balance size and quality.

Will I be able to transcribe long recordings?

That's the plan once transcription ships — no length limit, with multi-hour recordings handled locally.

Will transcripts be stored anywhere?

No. When transcription ships, transcripts will be saved only to your chosen folder. Nothing is uploaded or logged.

Which platforms are supported?

FileHop is available for macOS and Windows. Download the version for your operating system.

How accurate will offline transcription be?

The planned Whisper-based transcription aims to match the accuracy of common cloud services for clean English audio. Quality varies with accents and background noise.
