AI transcription software for video & audio

HappyScribe transcription software uses an artificial intelligence (AI) model to extract the speech from any file and convert it to text. Our AI is the core of our Automatic Transcription Software, and it allows us to transcribe files with 85% accuracy in more than 120 languages, dialects, and accents. Thanks to our advanced speech recognition algorithms, audio transcription is now a fast and affordable process. Transcribing audio is useful when you need to grant it's accessibility to a wider audience, making it searchable and readable.

The amount of time it will take to transcribe audio to text depends on the length of your audio file, the quality of the audio, and whether or not you transcribe the audio yourself or use software that will transcribe audio to text. If your audio quality is good and you are experienced at transcribing audio to text you can expect to take 4 hours to convert 1 hour of audio. If you have poor audio or are a novice at transcribing audio to text this may take longer. In contrast, the best audio to text converter can convert audio to text in a few minutes.

Dictation software enables speakers to transcribe a live conversation into text. In other words, dictation is the equivalent to real time transcription. While dictation is better when you don't have an audio recording, it might be a bit less accurate. Our transcription software uses speech to text algorithms to extract the language in your audio files and convert it into text.

Transcription is the process of converting audio to text. Transcribing audio to text involves taking an audio file and converting it to a text document verbatim and in the same language that the original speaker used. The best audio to text conversion can take an audio file in Spanish and convert it into a Spanish text file. On the other hand, translation is the process of taking a piece of audio or written text and converting it into another language. For example, if you have a text document in English but want it converted to French, that is translation.

Our voice recognition technology is adapted and can process many file formats. You can upload both audio and video formats and convert them in to text in just a few minutes. Once the transcripts are available, they will show up on your user dashboard, so you can export them into your preferred format. You can export files into Plain Text (TXT), Word Documents (.docx), PDF... etc. As the software includes timestamps, you can also export the text into a subtitle format like VTT, ot SRT.

The quality of the video or audio files that you submit plays quite an important role on the quality of the transcripts. If there's too much background noise it's likely that you'll encounter mistakes in your transcription, so we always recommend uploading quality audio. However, if there's still mistakes, you can always fix them using the audio player and the text editor available in your admin panel.
