[Ethnocomm] Transcriptions

[Evelyn Y Ho]

Hi All, 
I’ve been using Panopto’s auto-transcription because our school has a license with them. But Zoom’s auto transcription feature works pretty well too. Same reason - trying to do things that are free for students and we have site licenses with both Panopto and Zoom. BTW, the Panopto Spanish translation works pretty well too! 

But since we’re on this - anyone also know of a free version of something like Dedoose or other QDA? 

Thanks, 
Evelyn

I've tried a few, yet most seem to come with transcription per day or week limits without a subscription or have another significant barrier to use. I'm interested in any feedback and discussion around this topic. Thank you and I hope your 2026 is off to a great beginning, Natalie Dollar
