Scriber is a service for fast transcription of audio recordings in 18 languages, equipped with an editor for refining transcriptions. The project initially started as an internal tool for VLAST.KZ and has evolved into a standalone product this year.
Hello everyone, for the past six months, I've been trying to fill out this form and launch on Product Hunt, but every time I can't finish. I think I'm doing something wrong, so I decided to launch it as it is.
Let me briefly tell you where this project came from.
In 2013, when I first started dating my girlfriend, she was an intern at a media company, and they gave her long audio files to transcribe. Instead of spending time with me, she was busy transcribing. That's when the desire to create something that solves this tedious problem first emerged.
In 2016, I joined vlast.kz where my girlfriend was working at the time, and seeing that quite a few people were struggling with transcribing long interviews, I decided to create an internal tool that would allow automatic transcription and text editing within the admin interface. But my designer friend and I lacked the experience to turn it into a standalone product.
In 2022, my friend and I tried again and finally launched it. In a year, we haven't achieved much, but we already have dozens of regular users. I hope it helps you too, and you'll spend less time dealing with audio transcription and more time with your loved ones.
