An editorial reading of the saved reviews
A transcription app with solid baseline accuracy and speaker detection, but with a strict paywall structure: uploading a file is free, but exporting to Word or PDF costs extra. The web and mobile versions behave differently, and the transcript editor in the desktop app is awkward.

What people use it for
Journalists and researchers who need interview transcripts with multiple speakers and are willing to pay extra for convenient export.
What reviews praise
Automatic speaker detection with the ability to rename speakers, transcription of a 30-minute file in a few minutes, and support for multiple languages and audio input formats.
What reviews complain about
- Punctuation is poor with missing periods and question marks.
- Editing the transcript in the desktop app is clunky (clicking to position the cursor breaks the expected behavior).
- Each export format beyond plain text costs an additional fee.
