Listening back to audio recordings or watching videos and transcribing, rewriting and structuring everything that is said. It often takes a lot of time. It can now be much easier with AI tools. Because they help you transcribe, by automatically transcribing the recording for you. This way you work a lot more efficiently. We have collected 5 AI tools for you. We will explain them to you in this article.
1. Good Tape
The Danish tool Good Tape converts audio files in .mp3 or .WAV into text. Handy for making a report of an interview or (video) meeting, for example. Because you don’t have to write along during the interview and you can fully focus on what is being said. But also to convert a customer experience in video form into a written version. Or to have ideas that you speak into your phone written down. And that can be done in many different languages.
The tool is super fast and is so logically constructed that anyone can use it. Simply record the conversation, for example in Google Meet or your phone’s voice recorder, and then upload it. Wait until the recording is transcribed. Takes an average of 20 minutes. Then you get a .txt file and you can immediately start deleting, rewriting and puzzling.
Good Tape has a free version that allows you to transcribe 3 recordings per month, with a limit of 30 minutes per recording. If you need more, you can use the paid version. The transcription will be ready faster. Very convenient.
