Unlimited transcription for ten dollars
TurboScribe transcribes without counting minutes, which is unusual at this price and is the whole argument for it. A single file can run to ten hours and fifty can be queued at once. Three files a day are free, so the sensible move is to transcribe three of your own and judge the accuracy before paying anybody, here or elsewhere.
Our note
For volume this is the cheapest credible option here by a wide margin. When the work is editing rather than transcribing, Descript is a different product and worth the difference in price.

Browser video editing with subtitles that hold up
VEED does the jobs a short-form editor repeats every week: auto subtitles, resizing for each platform, background noise removal and translation. Everything runs in a tab, so a Chromebook edits as well as a laptop does. The credit system covers the AI features rather than the editor, and heavy translation work burns through a month of them quickly.
Our note
VEED and Submagic overlap most on captions, and the split is scope: Submagic is sharper at the fast-cut short-form style, VEED does more of the boring work like resizing, translation and noise removal. If captions are the only job, Zubtitle is a third of the price.
