seeking recommendations for auto transcription software/platform
Hello, Can anyone recommend a good automated transcription software/platform for Zoom recordings? Free/Open Source Software would be ideal, but I will use a paid service if necessary. I would hire some grad students but I currently don't have funds for this project. Thanks in advance! Best, Jared -- *Jared M.

Jared, I've used Descript<https://www.descript.com/> before and it worked well enough for my purposes. Hope this helps! There is a limited trial before you have to pay, so you could evaluate it if you like. -Kenyan Kenyan Burnham, Graduate, MATC, Dept. of English, Texas Tech University kenyan.burnham@ttu.edu ________________________________ From: Air-L <air-l-bounces@listserv.aoir.org> on behalf of Jared M.

Jared, I second Sarah's recommendation of otter.ai. It costs only $5.00/month for an academic <https://otter.ai/pricing>, and that gets you 6000 minutes (!) of transcription per month, I believe. If you have multiple voices on the recording, Otter does a nice job of figuring out who is talking based upon speech inflections, and once it learns those speech patterns, can more or less accurately provide a transcript that correctly identifies each speaker in your recording. They also have a plugin for Zoom, I believe, that sends all Zoom recordings to Otter for transcription. Hope this helps, John On Mon, Jan 25, 2021 at 12:28 PM Jared M.

Hi Jared, As someone using the payed version, this works really well. But to use the plugin for zoom you will need to pay more and use the pro, business or Enterprise one. But so far I just keep it running in a tab while having a zoom call. Works very well.
