You can easily automate workflows and transcribe large quantities of audio and video by using our speech-to-text API. Our API is quite simple. It transfers audio or video files to our ASR server and returns the transcript in the desired format.
The prices for our automatic speech-recognition API are up to 10x lower than when uploading your audio and video. Our team will contact you to explain our pricing structure. Testing our API is for free.
See API docsOur API is available in more than 80 languages. We support dual-channel audio, automatic punctuation and casing, speaker labels, timestamps, and all audio/video file formats.
Please contact us for our specialized APIs for phone calls, texts perfected by humans, and real-time audio or video.

Our research group conducts a lot of interviews. Previously, we worked with our own pool of transcribers.
I’m glad that now our interviews are all transcribed in one place, it saves a lot of time in arranging everything.

Amberscript offers their service cheaper than the competitors, thanks to a largely automated process. Besides, the customer service is great. Usually, everything runs so smoothly that I don’t even notice anything during the whole process.
Company Webcast – Read case study
In cooperation with Company Webcast, the leading webcasting provider in the Netherlands, Amberscript developed a speech recognition which is specifically trained on political language. Google’s recognition simply wasn’t accurate enough for political terms, names of political parties, or legislations, which are frequently discussed in our clients’ meetings.
