Abstract

In an embodiment, a transcription support system includes: a first storage, a playback unit, a second storage, a text generating unit, an estimating unit, and a setting unit. The first storage stores the voice data therein; a playback unit plays back the voice data; and a second storage stores voice indices, each of which associates a character string obtained from a voice recognition process with voice positional information, for which the voice positional information is indicative of a temporal position in the voice data and corresponds to the character string. The text creating unit creates text; the estimating unit estimates already-transcribed voice positional information based on the voice indices; and the setting unit sets a playback starting position that indicates a position at which playback is started in the voice data based on the already-transcribed voice positional information.
