Transcription and AI summaries by the minute
Notta records or ingests audio, transcribes it in over a hundred languages, and produces a summary with action items attached. Bilingual transcription and translation are what it is picked for over the English-first tools. The free tier's 120 minutes a month is one long interview, and everything above that is measured in minutes rather than in files.
Transcription you can pay for by the hour
Sonix will bill by the hour rather than by the month, which is the right shape for somebody who transcribes a batch of interviews twice a year and nothing in between. Accuracy across its 54 languages is good and the editor lines the text up against the audio. Subscribers get storage and an AI workspace that the hourly rate does not include.
Ratings are the average of reviews readers left. The facts are stated by each tool’s own listing and are not verified by CloutStack. How we make money.
