An hour of audio becomes searchable text in minutes — the transcript is ready before the outline is.

Multilingual sources
Interviews in 120+ languages transcribe directly, and translate into 50+ when the desk needs English.
Source protection
Recordings are processed on our own EU infrastructure — encrypted, never fed to third-party AI, deleted on your schedule.
Where It Earns Its Keep
Long, multi-speaker, one usable quote in minute 47 — search the transcript instead of scrubbing the recording.
Street noise, phone audio, strong accents — noise-tolerant models keep real recordings quotable.

Rated Excellent 4.8/5 based on 580+ reviews
Interviews in three languages last month — transcribed and translated without leaving the browser.
Uploaded a two-hour recording during lunch — the transcript was waiting before I finished my coffee. The accuracy genuinely surprised me.
Our legal team approved it because processing stays on EU infrastructure. That alone ruled out most of the competition.
Upload the recording as it ends, pull the key statements minutes later. My editor thinks I type fast.
Source protection matters. Local EU processing that never feeds third-party AI was the deciding factor.
No card, no tricks — I tested real files before paying and upgraded a week later because the workflow stuck.
Had trouble with a huge file — support walked me through batch upload the same morning. Rare these days.
Minutes, even for hour-long recordings — upload as soon as the interview ends and the transcript is typically ready before you finish the outline.
Up to 99.8% on clear audio — and every line links to its audio moment, so you verify the exact wording before it goes to print. That check takes seconds, not a re-listen.
Transcribe directly in 120+ languages, then translate to English (or 50+ other languages) in the same project when the desk needs it.
Yes — long recordings and video files up to 8 GB are fine, and multiple speakers come back attributed. Streamed pressers work straight from a YouTube link.
Recordings are transcribed on our own EU-based infrastructure: encrypted in transit and at rest, never used to train AI, deleted on your schedule.
