AI transcription accuracy with speaker labels
Industry-Leading AI

Transcribe MP4 to Text with 98%+ Accuracy

Most free transcription tools struggle with real-world video. Background noise, overlapping speakers, and regional accents cause errors that take hours to fix. You end up spending almost as long editing the transcript as you would doing manual transcription from scratch.

PrismaScribe's AI is built for these challenges. Speaker diarization identifies up to 32 different speakers and applies speaker labels throughout the transcript. Audio event detection catches laughter, applause, and other non-speech sounds so context is never lost.

Save Hours Every Week

Faster Than Manual Transcription

Manual transcription takes 4-6 hours for every hour of video. Professional transcription services can take days and cost significantly more. With PrismaScribe, upload a 1-hour MP4 file and get your transcript back in about 2 min. A 15-minute interview? Done in seconds.

Our automatic transcription software processes speech at near real-time speed, so you're never waiting around. If you transcribe recordings regularly — weekly podcasts, daily meeting notes, research interviews — you'll save dozens of hours every month.
