Hello HN, and happy new year!
Towards the end of last year I finally released AudioBriefly, a tool that transcribes and summarizes your voice notes. It doesn't require installing any apps, and also works on WhatsApp.
I know that there are competing services out there but the main advantages are:
- Speed: we perform optimizations on the audio files to be able to transcribe them quickly
- Punctuation: some of the competing services don't add punctuation to the transcription, which makes it a pain to read.
- Price: we are cheaper than most competitors out there for the regular user
- Web UI: some competitors only provide a whatsapp bot, while we also have a mobile-friendly web UI.
- Ease of use: I've tried to make it super easy to use for anyone.
If you want to try it out, I've created a discount code that makes you try the "Chatty" plan free for a month: just use the SHOWHN code at checkout. To prevent abuse the discount expires at 2024-01-08T00:00 UTC and can be redeemed for max 100 times.
Looking forward to your feedback!
