Company mission
We are building the #1 Audiovisual Platform by combining AI with trusted language experts to produce high-quality transcriptions, subtitles, and closed captions at speed.
Our take
Transcription and subtitling services are required in many different industries to support today’s international business landscape, and whilst this sounds simple, it is often difficult to find an effective solution. Whilst there are many transcription and subtitling services online, they are usually expensive when accurate, inaccurate when cheap, and lack the tools that companies need to apply them effectively.
Happy Scribe provides an AI-driven transcription and subtitling service online, allowing users to translate its automated services across over 60 languages, integrate and apply it through an interactive editing tool, and integrate it with APIs such as Youtube's closed captions. The company claims its automated AI-driven solution is up to 85% accurate, but users can pay for human-interrupted services to reach 99%+ accuracy.
Whilst Happy Scribe will inevitably face competition from existing transcription solutions, the company still shows a cutting edge by providing an end-to-end online workflow and deployment toolkit. Furthermore, by employing a workforce of translators and language experts, the company’s human-interrupted AI transcription solution goes beyond the language capabilities of existing services.
