I tested this with a couple of YouTube videos and some voice recordings, and it worked better than I expected. The text output is readable and doesn’t require a lot of manual editing. It’s definitely helpful if you need quick transcripts without spending hours doing it yourself. I wouldn’t say it’s perfect, but it’s reliable enough for everyday use. Curious to see how it evolves.

It was easy to use and quite accurate

It was easy to use and quite accurate. If I need this service in the future I would for sure get it again. I just needed it temporarily, so a regular subscription makes no sense at this point.

Do not use.

Do not use.
This service dupes the customer into purchasing a deal that is too good to be true. It then signs you up to a hefty monthly subscription unbeknownst to the customer. Complete lack of transparency.
Don’t bother using it.

Should have known it was too good to be true. Paid for a one-off transcription of an audio file and they signed me up for a monthly subscription without my knowledge! No-where in the emails from them is it clear that this was going to happen.
Be very very careful when using this company.

They stole 40 euros

They stole 40 euros. Needed their service once for 1.50 euros, to then after get billed 39,99 euros for their subscription. Never needed or wanted this. I don’t just want this to be cancelled, I want my money back.
