I built a AI transcription app because my girlfriend needed one for uni
Last winter, my girlfriend was working on her university thesis and had to transcribe hours of interviews manually. I ended up helping her by running a local model of whisper and months later I decide to build a product out of it. It is a simple AI transcription tool that lets you upload audio or video and get clean, readable transcripts. It works well for thesis interviews, lectures, podcasts — anything spoken.
- Free plan for up to 30 minutes/month. - Supports audio and video files - Speaker Identification and labelling. - AI insight and summary. - Colorful tags to organize and filter your transcript - Upload custom vocabulary to help improve your transcription - Export to formats compatible with research tools like NVivo, Atlas.ti, MAXQDA, R / RStudio and SPSS - Built with privacy in mind (no training on your data) and many other features
The app is available on www.verbatimly.com
I’d love to get your thoughts — whether you're a student, researcher, or just someone who’s had to type out long interviews by hand. Let me know what works, what doesn't, and what would make it better.
Also, we are proudly made in Germany.
Happy to answer questions or help anyone get started!
This should be a Show HN post: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html
Yea, I did realize later after I posted this. I have since posted in Show HN also.
Cool, I’m working on something similar. Mind me asking what stack you are using to build this?
Cool. I am using React and nodejs for backend. How is it going for you?
I’m actually curious to know how you’re hosting whisper Vs say just using the OpenAI api. I’m also wondering how offloading the transcription would to the client with something like https://github.com/xenova/whisper-web
Nice thing, what languages are supported for now?
Sorry robomiri, I am just seeing your comments. It currently supports 100+ languages. I have tested with the major languages and it works like charm.
