Show HN: EchoTexter, telegram bot that transcribes voice notes

2 pointsby ccortesover 1 year ago
Hello everyone!<p>I&#x27;m excited to introduce EchoTexter, a Telegram bot that transcribes voice messages and audio files into text. Unlike Telegram Premium, which is limited to in-app messages, EchoTexter works on any audiofie, which means it can transcribe voice notes from whatsapp and other apps.<p>How it works:<p>Forward&#x2F;share any voice message to EchoTexter. Receive a text transcription.<p>And that&#x27;s it!<p>I created this bot out of my own frustration with voice notes, in short, I hate them so much I&#x27;d often skip listening to them, missing out on conversations.<p>Languages&#x2F;Accents Supported:<p>US English, Global English, British English, Australian English. Hindi, German, Dutch, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese.<p>I’m currently offering 3 free transcriptions for everyone to try it out. I’d love to hear your thoughts or any feedback you have!<p>Thanks for checking it out!

What transcription model is this using? $7 seems quite steep when Whisper is as low as 10c&#x2F;hour of transcription.<p>I’m also not impressed with the (lack of) privacy policy:<p>&gt; Want to Keep It Private? Don&#x27;t share personal or private voice messages.<p>(From the website)
