Data Transfer Guide
Exporting from Rev: Log into your Rev account and navigate to 'My Files.' Select completed transcripts and captions, downloading them in your preferred format (TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT). For bulk exports, use Rev's order history page to select multiple files. Ensure you have original media files saved locally, as Rev may not provide these. Organize exports by project or date. Importing to Trint: Upload original media files to Trint to generate new AI transcripts—this creates fully editable, searchable transcripts. For exported Rev transcript files, upload them as reference documents. Use Trint's folder system to recreate your organizational structure. Note: Trint cannot convert third-party transcript files into its editable transcript format, so regenerating transcripts from source media is recommended for active projects.
