Comments and Reviews
Pros: -Free! -Supports video (I uploaded a 90 second, spoken-word MP4 as a test) -Minimalist, clean, basic UI -Transcription accuracy is quite good, and separates paragraphs and pauses really well. -No cloud processing, audio doesn't leave your device
Cons: -Slow. -Wish I had it on Windows or Linux.
Overall, a wonderful free piece of software!
It works really well!
