To get started
Why we built LetScribe
Hours of audio and video are created every minute — lectures, interviews, meetings, podcasts, legal depositions, research calls. All of that spoken knowledge is locked in formats that are hard to search, share, or act on.
Human transcription services work, but they're slow and expensive. Older automated tools were fast but inaccurate, especially with accents, technical vocabulary, or multiple speakers.
The arrival of large-scale AI speech models changed the equation. We built LetScribe to put that technology in a product anyone can use — from uploading a file to getting a clean, editable transcript in under a minute.
What we stand for
Accuracy first
We obsess over transcription quality. Every model update, every post-processing step is in service of getting the words right — not just fast.
Privacy by default
Your audio is processed and immediately deleted. We never train on your content. Your data is yours, full stop.
Accessible pricing
Professional transcription used to cost $1–$2 per minute with human services. We think everyone deserves better — so we started at free.
Built for builders
Whether you're a solo podcaster, a research team, or a developer integrating via API — LetScribe is designed to fit your workflow, not the other way around.
The technology
LetScribe is powered by OpenAI Whisper — the state-of-the-art speech recognition model trained on 680,000 hours of multilingual audio. Whisper achieves near-human accuracy across 98+ languages and handles accents, background noise, and overlapping speakers far better than older models.
We layer additional processing on top: speaker diarization to label who said what, post-processing to clean up filler words and formatting, and English translation in a single pass for non-English audio.
For social media and platform video — YouTube, TikTok, Instagram Reels, Facebook — we use yt-dlp to extract audio directly from URLs so you never need to download files yourself.
