What it does

Saw my teacher friend struggle to find a cheap and not scammy transcription service that also didnt require a subscription, so I made it. Transcribe audio and video for just $2/hour. Uses OpenAI whisper, considered one of the best transcription AI services out there.

Turn an interview, meeting, lecture or podcast into an editable transcript with speaker labels — most files in under five minutes. $2.00 per hour, $2.00 minimum per file, no subscription and no credits. Automatic language detection. Export as TXT, SRT, VTT, DOCX or PDF.

Interviews, meetings, lectures, podcasts — audio or video. What comes back is an editable transcript with the speakers already separated. Press play. Real audio, unedited output, speaker labels worked out automatically. Click any line to jump the audio to it. Before we get into the numbers, can we align on what “on track” actually means this quarter? Fair question. I'd define it as hitting 80% of the revenue target and not slipping the platform migration past September. Anything below that and we're having a different conversation in October. Then we're fine on paper, but we've burned the runway we were going to use for the European expansion. So technically green, practically yellow.…from transcribecat.com

    $0.15/hr audio transcription API based on OpenAI Whisper2022 · whisperapi.com · ▲8

    Hey HN! I've been working on a side project to create an audio transcription API based on the OpenAI whisper model. Sign up link: https://whisperapi.com I tried to make the API really easy to use and get setup with. Also, because the Whisper model is so good, turns out I can offer the service for about 75% cheaper than what seems like the industry average. I'm always looking to make improvements, so would appreciate any feedback anyone has!
