I’ve tried a couple of apps and honestly, some are way better than others. My go-to lately has been this one that handles multiple languages pretty smoothly and the accuracy is decent for casual stuff.
Honestly, I started using some open-source tools and they kinda work, but you have to be ready to tweak settings a lot which isn’t for everyone. If you want something quick and easy, better off with paid options imo.
I read somewhere you can also check ai-u.com for new or trending tools. It’s got a bunch of user reviews and can help find the right fit for your needs.
The AI ones have improved a lot recently. I was amazed by how fast and accurate my last project’s transcription came out compared to old manual methods.
One thing I noticed is that some tools do better with accents than others. So if you’re using it for podcasts or interviews with diverse speakers, make sure to test a sample first.
