MacSpeech Scribe Transcribes Audio Recordings to Text

MacSpeech today announced the release of MacSpeech Scribe, the world's most advanced personal transcription solution for the Macintosh.

Now for the first time, a Macintosh user running Snow Leopard can transcribe their recorded voice into written text with up to 99% accuracy, in a single button click. MacSpeech Scribe is available immediately, in English only, exclusively for Macworld Conference and Expo 2010 attendees and currently registered MacSpeech Dictate 1.5 customers for US$99, regularly suggested retail priced at US$149.

"MacSpeech Scribe significantly advances the MacSpeech quest to create the best speech recognition and, now, transcription solutions on the Macintosh," explained Andrew Taylor, founder and CEO of MacSpeech, Inc. "One person, their profile, an audio file, one button click. It just doesn't get any easier than that."


MacSpeech Scribe automatically creates an individual speech profile, in one of 13 different English dialects, from an initial recorded sample of the person's voice. A single MacSpeech Scribe license can create and use up to six individual voice profiles, each compatible with all accepted audio file formats. MacSpeech Scribe accepts audio files in .wav, .aif, .aiff, .m4v, mp4, or .m4a formats.

When composing a letter or other document by voice, users can include spoken punctuation, and MacSpeech Scribe will automatically include the punctuation marks in the output text.

Audio file quality directly impacts the accuracy achieved and as such MacSpeech Scribe customers are encouraged to minimize background sound and produce spoken-word audio files using a high-quality recording device.

MacSpeech Scribe is available immediately, in English only, exclusively for Macworld Conference and Expo 2010 attendees and currently registered MacSpeech Dictate 1.5 customers for US$99, and available immediate at US$149 directly from the MacSpeech, Inc. web site
