Awesome product and extremely accurate. In fact, I was surprised how accurate it was after having used Temi almost exclusively for a long time. I've completely switched over to HappyScribe and I couldn't be happier!

Great, easy to use. Only accents are very difficult to translate. You need a very nicely spoken recording.

It is a very good transcription software. The incorporated text editor and the audio player allow to quickly follow and correct the automatic transcription. Highly recommended.
