How AI is used

HappyScribe is a speech-to-text platform designed for transcription, subtitling, and translation. It supports a variety of audio and video files and integrates with common meeting platforms to capture notes and action items.

The tool serves users who handle high volumes of spoken content, such as newsrooms, e-learning providers, and market researchers. It offers automated AI workflows for speed, alongside an add-on service where professional linguists proofread text for increased precision.

Beyond transcription, the platform includes tools for creating and translating subtitles for video content. For teams, it supports collaborative editing, workspace roles, and maintains security certifications including SOC 2 Type II and GDPR compliance.

Buyers should confirm which plan fits their monthly minute requirements, as the AI transcription and translation limits vary between the Basic, Pro, and Business tiers.
