  • Clean Crisp interface
    Clean Crisp interface. Spot on transcription and translation when accent / voice is clear. Time saver of a tool and how. Like most tools, translation cannot be perfect but it's better than most.

    Although the transcription is not perfect by any means, the format makes it easier to transcribe.
