Hi Ricardo! The best ever? You've set a high bar and we'll do our best to keep it there. Thanks for the lovely review! 🎉
Impressive translations
I must say - the translations are superb! I'm impressed. I use AI translations for subtitles for my video projects and I am surprised at how minimal "fixing" I have to do afterwards! It says that machine generated translations are about 88% accurate, but I've experienced almost 97% . I also use for Greek translations and that's quite impressive too - not as good as English, but still very high accuracy! The customer service is excellent too - I get a reply immediately and the explanations to help me are very clear. 10/10 guys!

Hi JP! What a fantastic review, thank you for taking the time to write it.
Hearing the translations are landing closer to 97% on your subtitle projects is brilliant feedback for our team. We stay conservative with the published accuracy numbers, so it's always great when real-world results come in higher. Greek is one of the trickier languages, so it's lovely to hear it's holding up for you too.
A huge thank you also for the shoutout to our support team. They put a lot of care into every reply, and they'll be thrilled to read this. 10/10 right back at you, JP! 🙏
The mp3 file reducer was horrendous
The mp3 file reducer was horrendous, first did a batch of short mp3 files smallest compression. After i listened it was so bad that i tried "best balance" which was as bad, with loud squeaks. I did also do a trancript which looked ok but for the waste of time and unsubscribing 2 stars is even 1 star too much but that is for the transcript which looked ok, but did not cheque if correct as for the 10 min limit. For happy scribe it was an Ai voice that i compressed.

Hi Jasper, thanks for taking the time to share this, and sorry to hear the compression results weren't what you needed.
A couple of things worth flagging: AI-generated voice files can sometimes produce artefacts like the squeaks you described when compressed at lower bitrates, especially shorter clips. That isn't an excuse, just context. We'd really like to take a closer look at the files you ran through.
Could you send the original and compressed files (or just the file IDs) to support@happyscribe.com? We'll dig into what went wrong and get back to you. And we're glad the transcript itself looked accurate, that's at least something to build on.
HappyScribe would put many audio…
HappyScribe would put many audio recordings into text, put in perscise positions, and would help translate the text in any language. which had helped me a lot with my classwork assignments.

Hi Jeremiah, really glad HappyScribe has been useful for your classwork! Transcription and translation in one place is exactly the workflow we want to make easier for students.

Hi Sammy, thank you for the kind words! Forgetting to copy what your AI voice just said is honestly one of those frustrating little moments, glad HappyScribe was there to bail you out.
Really appreciate the review.

Hi there, thanks so much for the 5 stars! Short and sweet, we'll take it.
Fantastic service and transparent packages
Honest and transparent about their packages and what is included. They give you a 10 minute free trial for transcription so you understand how the software works and if it works well or not - and it does work very well! It is easy to use and very straightforward, and you even have a function to extract quotes that works very well.
The AI generates transcripts are in almost perfect condition, and there are virtually no mistakes in your transcript unless your audio files mention names, organizations, or words in another language (some of which the software actually also translates well).
Moreover, it is GDPR-compliant (from what I understand), so very good for research.
I definetly recommend it.

Hi Cristian, thank you, this is one of the most thoughtful reviews we've had in a while and we really appreciate the detail.
A few specific things worth picking up on:
Pricing transparency is something we push hard on internally, so it's nice to hear it lands that way externally too.
The quote extraction feature is a relatively new one and we're really pleased it's working well for you, that's exactly the kind of use case it was built for.
You're spot on about names and organisations being the trickiest part. Our custom vocabulary feature (Glossary) can help with that if you ever want to give it a go on recurring terms.
And yes, HappyScribe is GDPR-compliant. We're also ISO 27001 compliant, which matters for a lot of research teams.
Thanks again for the recommendation, it means a lot.
Very good toolbox!

Only 10 mins before paywall
Kind of dumb that for your first test, you can only get 10 minutes of a recording translated. Honestly, for the time it took to create an account and agree to the permissions, it was a waste of my time to get only 10 minutes of a translation out of it. Maybe it's good if you pay the $8.50 Euros/mo, but I just wanted to see if it was worthwhile and couldn't complete that task.

Hi Amy, thank you for the honest feedback, the 10-minute free trial limit is something we hear about regularly and it's a fair point.
The thinking behind it is that 10 minutes is usually enough to test transcription quality, but you're right that it's tight for properly evaluating translation on a longer recording. We'll pass this back to the team, it's exactly the kind of feedback that helps us rethink the trial experience.
If you'd like to test a longer file before committing, drop us a line at support@happyscribe.com and we'll see what we can do.
