AI Interview Translator: Transcribe & Translate Any Conversation
Every speaker labeled. Upload any interview recording—Utell labels each speaker, transcribes word-for-word, and produces a side-by-side bilingual transcript. Export to NVivo, ATLAS.ti, or DOCX.
What is an AI Interview Translator?
An AI interview translator turns a recorded conversation into a clean, multilingual version — both speakers stay distinct, both keep their natural delivery.
Utell separates voices automatically, translates each turn in context, and rebuilds the dialogue so the result sounds like a real interview, not a transcript read aloud.

Interview Translator FAQ
Everything you need to know about translating interviews with Utell AI.
- How accurate is speaker identification?
Utell uses speaker diarization that handles 2–8 speakers reliably, including cross-talk and accent variation. Accuracy is highest with separate mics per speaker but works well with single-mic recordings too. - What export formats are supported?DOCX, Markdown, plain TXT, SRT/VTT subtitles, NVivo (.qdpx), ATLAS.ti, and MAXQDA-friendly formats. Bilingual side-by-side and translation-only exports both available.
