TurboScribe

Upload an audio or video file to TurboScribe and you get a text transcript back, in 98+ languages. TurboScribe is an AI transcription tool that also translates, and it can identify different speakers in a recording.

The company claims 99.8% accuracy, though results vary by language, so check anything important before you rely on it.

The free plan is the catch to know about first.

You get 3 transcripts a day, and each upload is capped at 30 minutes.

Paid plans remove the limit on how much you can transcribe, which matters if you work through long interviews, lectures or batches of recordings.

Poor recordings are not a dead end.

An audio restoration option cleans up noisy files before transcribing, but it adds processing time.

Speaker recognition is useful for interviews and meetings, yet it is not perfect, so expect to fix a few labels by hand.

Overall, TurboScribe is a straightforward speech-to-text service with a free tier you can test on short clips.
