Which one is for you
Pick Beey if
- Fits if you turn interviews and recordings into text and subtitles
- Works for small groups, as Plus covers up to 5 users
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you transcribe often: credit is counted in minutes, so heavy use needs more hours
- Tight if you stay free: only the first 30 minutes are free
- Watch out: prices are in euros and include VAT, with no dollar prices shown
- Skip it if you want a bot to join meetings, as the pages read describe none
- Watch out: API access, batch transcription and on-premise use are Enterprise only
Pick Transkriptor if
- Fits if you have a pile of audio and video files to turn into text, not only live meetings
- Works for students and researchers, since education plans are 50% off
Look elsewhere if
- Not for you if you want a free plan to stay on, as the free account is 90 minutes and done
- Pricey if you pay monthly, at $19.99 for Pro against $8.33 a month on the yearly plan
- Skip it if you want summaries or AI chat on Lite, because both start on Pro
- Tight if you transcribe a lot: 300 minutes on Lite, 2,400 on Pro, 3,000 a seat on Team, and unused minutes don't roll over
- Watch out: the promise not to train on your data is listed only from Pro up, and Lite is billed monthly only
How we grade them
| 1.6GPABeeyWeak | 3.0GPATranskriptorVery good | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | DPlus is EUR 25 a month for 5 hours, so a one-hour meeting costs about EUR 5, or EUR 0.14 a minute pay as you go. Regular use costs more than flat-rate notes tools. | CPro is $8.33 a month billed yearly ($99.99) for 2,400 minutes, just past the low end of this category and in its middle. Pay monthly and it's $19.99. Lite is $9.99 for 300 minutes with no AI summaries. Every plan is metered and unused minutes don't roll over. |
| Free plan and trial | DThe first 30 minutes of transcription are free with no card. That is one meeting, not a trial of a week. | CThere's no free plan to settle on. A free account hands you 90 minutes of transcription to try the service — an hour and a half, so two or three meetings — and that's the whole of it. A cap you'll hit in the first week. |
| Features | CTranscription in 30+ languages, an editor, subtitles, translation and live captions. API access and batch work are Enterprise only. | BIt covers the job end to end: files, YouTube and Drive links, a bot for Zoom, Meet and Teams, or the Mac and Windows app recording with no bot in the call. Over 100 languages, speaker labels, translation, and from Pro summaries, templates and AI chat that cites its source. Nothing its rivals don't also do, though. |
| Ease of use | CNo store rating on record. There is an editor and subtitle tools to learn. | A4.7 from about 1,100 App Store ratings, which is enough people for the number to mean something. Upload a file or paste a link and the transcript comes back, and the desktop app spots a meeting and records it without being asked. |
| Platforms and integrations | CWeb only, and no integrations are listed. | AWeb, Mac, Windows, iPhone, Android and a browser extension — the lot. It also hooks into Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, Google Drive, Dropbox, Slack, HubSpot and Notion. |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
