Supporting 94 languages is truly impressive and how does Scribewave manage when it comes to heavily accented speech or speakers who have a unique pacing?

Ulysse Maes

Hi@juan_smith1 , that's a great question, thank you! We constantly benchmark 14 different ASR models, both commercial and open-source. Some of them we fine-tuned ourselves on local dialects or smaller languages. This makes us confident that for any situation we can provide you with the best available transcript. That doesn't mean it's always perfect, but we're getting there. And you sure won't find it more accurate anywhere else!

I love the all-in-one vibe. Can Scribewave work with editing tools like Premiere or Final Cut?

Ulysse Maes

@ethan_lennon yes, you can for example highlight parts in your transcript and export this as an edited video to Adobe Premiere Pro! For now, we don't offer a direct FCP integration, but I'll put it on the list of features-to-come. You can already export a subtitle file and import that in Final Cut though 😊

Hina Siddiqui

Is there a way to customize Scribewave with industry specific terminology? For instance legal or medical jargon?

Ulysse Maes

Hi @hina_siddiqui , yes: Scribewave provides the option to add custom vocabulary to your organization or individual files, which is perfect for the use case you describe. For enterprise clients, I can even offer a self-learning vocabulary that gets updated every time someone corrects a word in a transcript. In this way, you create your own, specialised TTS model.

I tried out Scribewave during a 90-minute panel discussion with overlapping voices and it performed surprisingly well.

Ulysse Maes

@alex_bryant1 thanks for trying out the tool and sharing your experience! 🙏

Faith Foster

@ujlm Can it handle transcribing media that has a lot of background noise or music?

Ulysse Maes

@faith_foster a very important consideration indeed! Our models are trained to work even in these challenging circumstances. We can even automatically tag audio events such a laughter or music.

Camden Granger

This seems perfect for both creators and researchers. Does Scribewave offer speaker identification for multi-voice files?

Ulysse Maes

Hi @camden_granger , thank you for your kind words! Yes, the software can recognize and tag up to 30 speakers per file 🙂

Lucas Parsons

Does Scribewave allow for batch processing of multiple files at the same time?

Ulysse Maes

@lucas_parsons Great question. Yes, it does! You can upload up to 100 files at the same time, and download the results in bulk as word or srt files 🚀

Mary Gen

I love your focus on privacy which is fantastic but do you ever temporarily store transcripts or audio files to enhance performance? Or is everything genuinely ephemeral?

Ulysse Maes

@mary_gen thank you for your question. We need to store your files on secure servers to make the editor work. But you stay owner of your data and upon project deletion, everything's removed. So if you upload your file, download the result and delete the project, you don't leave a trace on our servers. We don't use your data for training either.

Ella Hall

I’m really impressed by the variety of languages you support that’s quite rare. Do you also offer speaker diarization for multi-person recordings like interviews?

Ulysse Maes

Hi @ella_hall4 , thanks! We offer speaker diarization up to 30 speakers per file :)

Katie West

The language coverage is impressive. Can I upload large video files straight from cloud storage?

Ulysse Maes

Hi@katie_west2 , thank you for your feedback 😊 The tool currently supports only local file uploads, but adding support for cloud storage services is a great suggestion. I’ve looked into this integration before, and knowing it’s something users are actively interested in definitely pushes it higher on my priority list!

Luke Stanley

This is absolutely brilliant. Does Scribewave provide real-time transcription for live meetings or is it just for pre recorded audio and video?

Ulysse Maes

@luke_stanley1 real-time transcription for meetings is definitely something that I'm considering. For now, the platform only supports pre-recorded audio, but you can expect a meeting integration to appear in the near future.

Cady Gilmore

Languages like Mandarin or Arabic often depend on contextual or tonal nuances how does Scribewave ensure accurate interpretation in such complex situations especially when it comes to translation?

Ulysse Maes

@cady_gilmore you're completely right! Our models have been trained on lots of data, resulting in a remarkable accuracy on these languages. Feel free to give it a try, and let me know your feedback 😊
