Dave here with some answers ..
Since launching Fusion Scribe, my inbox has been buzzing with great questions. Rather than answer them one by one, I figured I'd put together the ultimate FAQ so you have everything in one place.
Grab a coffee — this one's packed with value. ☕
🚀 "First — What Exactly IS
Fusion Scribe?"
Fusion Scribe is a desktop application for Windows and Mac that lets you transcribe unlimited audio and video files using OpenAI's Whisper AI — running 100% locally on your computer. No cloud uploads, no monthly subscriptions, no per-minute fees. You pay once and own it forever.
But it's way more than just a transcription tool. Fusion Scribe also downloads videos from over 1,800 websites (YouTube, TikTok, Vimeo, and
more), includes built-in AI tools with free models for analyzing and repurposing your transcripts, comes loaded with 80+ ready-made AI prompts, supports 100 languages, and exports in 5 formats (TXT, CSV, SRT, VTT, JSON).
It handles single files or hundreds at once with the Bulk Transcribe feature — and includes a Commercial License so you can use it for client work.
Think of it as your all-in-one transcription, content analysis, and repurposing engine
— for a one-time price of $27 with coupon FUSION40.

💰 "Do I need to pay for Whisper? Are there hidden costs after purchase?"
Nope. Zero additional costs. OpenAI's Whisper is open-source and
completely free. When you install Fusion Scribe, the Whisper model downloads directly to your computer. After that, your machine does all the transcription work — no cloud servers, no API fees, no credits to buy, no per-minute charges. Whether you transcribe 1 file or 1,000 files, the cost is $0.00. The only thing you ever pay for is Fusion Scribe itself — one time.
⏱️ "Does it output timestamps?"
Yes — automatically. Every transcription generates
5 formats instantly: TXT (plain text), CSV (spreadsheet-ready with timing), SRT (subtitle format with precise timestamps), VTT (web subtitle format with timestamps), and JSON (structured data with segment-level timing). Just select the format you need from a dropdown — no re-processing required. SRT and VTT files are ready to upload directly to YouTube or any platform that accepts subtitles.
🎬 "Can it handle long videos? Like 2-3 hours?"
There is no time
limit. I've personally transcribed 2-3 hour recordings with no issues. Webinars, conference talks, full training sessions — Fusion Scribe handles them all. The only factor is processing time (longer videos take longer), which depends on your hardware and which Whisper model you choose. But there's no artificial cap. If it's 5 hours long, it'll transcribe the whole thing.
🌍 "Can I translate transcripts to other languages (not just English)?"
Yes —
using a clever built-in workaround. Whisper can transcribe in 100+ languages and includes one-click translation to English. But for translating from English to other languages, just use the built-in Ask AI feature with a prompt like: "Translate the following transcript from English to Spanish. Preserve meaning accurately. Keep timestamps exactly as provided." The free AI models handle this beautifully, and if you run it on your SRT or VTT format, your timestamps are
preserved — giving you ready-to-use subtitles in any language. 🎯
📋 "Can I transcribe a whole YouTube playlist at once?"
Absolutely. Fusion Scribe has a built-in Video Link Extractor. Copy any YouTube playlist URL, paste it in, click "Get Video Links," and it extracts every video URL. Then send all those links straight to the Bulk Transcribe tool and let it rip. An entire playlist — 20, 50, 100+ videos — downloaded and transcribed in one batch. It
also works with YouTube channels, Google search results, and any webpage with embedded videos.
🎧 "Can I transcribe audiobooks or podcasts?"
Yes. Fusion Scribe supports 26+ audio formats including MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, OGG, and more. Download your audiobook or podcast episodes to your computer, load them into Fusion Scribe, and transcribe — one at a time or in bulk. For podcasts with direct audio URLs, you can paste those links right in and Fusion
Scribe handles the download automatically. Then use the AI tools to generate summaries, show notes, key quotes, blog posts, and more from every episode.
🎓 "Can I transcribe video courses from Kajabi, Teachable, etc.?"
Yes — if you can download the videos first. Fusion Scribe can't log into password-protected platforms directly, but once the video files are on your computer, it transcribes them all. Some course platforms allow direct downloads. For
others, there are Chrome extensions and open-source tools on GitHub that let you save videos from platforms like Kajabi. Once downloaded, load them all into Bulk Transcribe and process every lesson in one batch. Then use the AI tools to create study guides, summaries, and notes for each lesson.
🤖 "What AI models are included? Do I need API keys?"
Free AI models are built right in — no API keys required. You get access to Gemini Flash, ChatGPT
Nano, Llama, Mistral, DeepSeek, Perplexity, and more. These update automatically every time you open the software. If you want to use your own API keys for more power, you can connect OpenAI, Google Gemini, Claude, Grok, Mistral, or DeepSeek — but it's completely optional. Many users never touch API keys and get incredible results with the free models.
⚡ "How does Bulk Transcribe work?"
Load everything at once, click one button, walk away.
Add local files (video or audio), YouTube URLs, TikTok links, podcast episodes, Vimeo videos — mix and match as many as you want. Fusion Scribe downloads, extracts audio, and transcribes every file using Whisper on your machine. When you come back, everything is organized in a clean data grid. You can then run AI prompts on individual transcripts, all of them combined, or export everything in any format. Save the whole batch as a project file you can reopen anytime.
📥 "What sites can
it download from?"
Over 1,800 websites. YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Vimeo, Twitch, Dailymotion, Rumble — and about 1,795 more. It uses the YT-DLP engine under the hood, which supports virtually every major video platform. Plus there's a generic downloader for direct video/audio URLs from any web server.
💻 "Does it work on Mac?"
Yes — Windows AND Mac. Fusion Scribe runs on both platforms. All features
work identically on either system.
🛒 "Are there upsells or OTOs after purchase?"
None. Zero. Nada. After you click the buy button, you pay once and go straight to your download page. No upsells, no one-time offers, no backend offers, no hidden fees, and nothing else to buy. That's it. Simple, the way it should be.
"FusionScribe is a
Godsend! I've had access to and paid for multiple apps that transcribe videos. They all had limitations — one format only, size limits, required subscriptions. FusionScribe has multiple formats, no size limits, no subscriptions, AND built-in AI prompts you can use FOR FREE. It is an absolute MUST HAVE! And if you need help or support, I've always heard from Dave himself. Can't beat that kind of support!"
