Adquirí una suscripción para realizar transcripciones por lotes, aunque hace su trabajo, no es la mejor.

Pros

Plataforma para transcripción automática de archivos de audio y video. Permite hacer modificaciones a las transcripciones.

Cons

El costo es una principal limitante, además de que en idioma español comete errores constantes en ciertas palabras que hacen referencia a instituciones o lugares geográficos.

I would not use it again for the purpose of transcribing a casual conversation or interview.

Pros

It is easy to use. The file upload process is fast. The interface is user friendly. Allows Paypal checkout.

Cons

While the voices are clear, I anticipated some errors due to the music in the background (no lyrics) and one speaker's accent. I paid for the AI version thinking I could save time by using the time stamps and basic outline of the transcription to make my work faster. Unfortunately, this service could not differentiate well between the male and female speakers without long breaks between sentences. It also showed very very low accuracy for the non-native english speaker, and only moderate to low accuracy for the native speaker.

Recommend Dovetail instead. Better transcription performance, transparent pricing, and more responsive customer service.

Pros

It was quick to start and upload a file.

Cons

Had the worst transcription performance on a file that I tested across 4 platforms. Beware of pricing. Signed up for the monthly option to try it out for a month and was told that it could only be cancelled after 3 months? Unless I'm missing it this isn't listed on their pricing page https://www.amberscript.com/en/pricing/ Some of the worst customer service I've experienced overall.

Pros

Amberscript is wonderful if you want to create blogs and other content from your videos.

Cons

Amberscript has a subtitle option. However, it is not very customizable. This is what I originally purchased Amberscript for. But I still use it.

Easy to setup and use. Good quality.

Pros

You have a spoken interview transcribed in no time. The Dutch (AI) text-to-speech function is the best I've seen. Good enough to save tons of time.

Cons

Can't think of anything now. Maybe integration with other software could be better. But uploading single files to Amberscript does the job for me. Certainly if I compare it to the time lost when I was transcribing everything myself.

Mi experiencia con Amberscript en general es muy buena.

Pros

En mi caso, el software tiene algunas fallas y no salva mi progreso en el trabajo o simplemente se recarga solo.
