AI transcription, subtitling, and translation for audio and video content
About Happy Scribe
Happy Scribe is a cloud-based transcription and subtitling platform that converts audio and video files into accurate text using AI — with optional human-reviewed transcripts for maximum accuracy. It supports 120+ languages and accents, making it a strong choice for global content teams, journalists, researchers, and video creators who need reliable multilingual transcription at scale. The platform covers the full content workflow: automatic transcripts are ready in minutes (up to 85% accuracy), while human-verified versions are delivered within hours at up to 99% accuracy. A built-in subtitle editor lets users fine-tune captions before exporting to SRT, VTT, or embedded formats. Happy Scribe also includes an AI meeting assistant that joins Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams calls automatically, records conversations, identifies speakers, and generates formatted transcripts. Teams benefit from real-time collaboration features — shared projects, inline editing, custom glossaries, and style guides — alongside enterprise-grade security (GDPR-compliant, SOC 2 Type II). An open API supports automated transcription pipelines for developers and media companies with high-volume needs.
