00:00How did you end up in your current role?
00:06Kind of by accident. After college I spent two years in sales first.
00:15What made you switch?
00:19Mostly the hours. I wanted more time with my family.
* Measured by us with a full 70-minute German lecture recording, on a PC with an Nvidia graphics card and the model already loaded. Without a graphics card it takes much longer. The download only happens the first time.
How it works
Privacy
Other services upload your recordings to their servers. With Stillscript, your own computer does the work. That's why we can't see, store or share your interviews, even if we wanted to.

FAQ
Transcribing is free, with no per-minute pricing and no sign-up. Later we'll add Pro features for thesis work, like speaker detection and de-identification, as a pass with no subscription. Transcription stays free and unlimited.
Very accurate with clear speech. In our test with five minutes of a lecture, we counted four to five errors. Accents, echo or a poor microphone mean more errors. You fix them right in the text.
Yes, in a light mode for short recordings. It's slower and less accurate. For long interviews, use a laptop or desktop.
Your participants need to consent to being recorded. Because Stillscript processes everything on your computer, no third-party transcription service ever gets the audio. Check with your IRB or ethics committee what your consent form and data plan need to say.
