Happy Scribe
Happy Scribe saves us a lot of time in generating transcripts and subtitles. We have used other services, including human transcription, and really find Happy Scribe to be adequate for a starting point. Even human transcription isn't perfect when the transcriptionist isn't familiar with the domain and specific vocabulary used.

  • The entire web app experience is thoughtfully designed and implemented. Using it is a pleasure.
  • A sweet feature: the ability to share editable transcripts with guests through a share link.

Happy Scribe
For our use, Happy Scribe's machine translation is nearly as accurate as the human translation services we used before at considerably lower cost. The web app is better designed than either of the others we tried, though we haven't used those alternatives in the past several years
