I used the free trial on an MP4 I used the free trial on an MP4, which was a ZD Soft screen recording of a webinar. Brilliant!! With the presenter's natural speech with pauses and hesitation, I wondered where the transcription would end each sentence... Nailed it nearly 100% of the time, but I think you'd have to add in inverted commas yourself for dialogue, if it was an audio of a novel. And it was very fast in delivery...a few minutes. I'm hugely impressed.

Cockatoo works like magic Cockatoo works like magic! 99% accuracy and it switches languages, even though you choose one before you transcribe. I love that they don't make any money on ads. Upload -> Transcribe -> Download and repeat!

The 95+% accuracy was truly helpful for… The 95+% accuracy was truly helpful for starters as was the speed in which the work was done, giving me the basis for an excellent transcription base and later good finished product for my client.

Super service! I just tried out a sample, and the recording came back almost instantly, letter perfect. I plan to write some articles and will be subscribing to the service. The transcription comes in as text; I pasted it into a word file and can easily edit it. I'm looking forward to a long relationship with Cockatoo!

French to Eng SRT file for use in Adobe… Exporting a SRT file for use in Adobe Premier, the transcription is very out of sync with the audio file that I provided, as in each line is randomly out of sync, so its not just an issue of retiming the sequence. There are is a lot of text out of order also. Some times text is repeated many times. Big waste of time and money. On the plus side the French to English is fairly good, but because I don't speak both languages I will not be able to sync the files one line at a time and make the necessary corrections.
