Today we'll be exploring the fundamentals of machine learning.
At its core, machine learning is about teaching computers to learn from data rather than being explicitly programmed.
There are three main types: supervised learning, unsupervised learning, and reinforcement learning.
Let's start with supervised learning, which is the most common approach.
What is VoiceScribe?
VoiceScribe turns spoken audio into text. Upload a voice memo, interview, meeting or lecture recording up to 50MB and download a plain text transcript. The Whisper speech model detects the language on its own. One credit per file. Credit packs start at $4.99. No subscription, and credits never expire.
How does transcription work?
VoiceScribe sends your recording through Whisper, an open speech recognition model trained on many languages. Whisper works out which language is spoken, writes down what it hears and adds punctuation. The transcript comes back as a plain text file.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which audio files can VoiceScribe transcribe?
VoiceScribe transcribes MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4 audio, WebM and OGG files up to 50MB, including iPhone voice memos. Each file uses one credit and comes back as a plain text transcript you can paste into notes, documents, captions or email.
Which languages can VoiceScribe transcribe?
VoiceScribe uses the Whisper speech model, which covers 99 languages and detects the spoken language on its own, so there is nothing to set. Accuracy is highest for widely spoken languages and clear recordings, and lower for heavy background noise or overlapping speakers.
How do I get an accurate transcript?
Record close to the speaker, in a quiet room, with one person talking at a time. Cut long silences and music before uploading. Names and jargon are the most common errors, so search the transcript for them before you share it.
Do credits expire?
Never! Once you purchase a credit pack, you can use those credits anytime - there's no expiration date or time limit.
Can I try before buying?
This tool has no free preview. The smallest pack covers a few files, so a first try costs little, and if a file fails to process, its credit goes back to your balance automatically. Credits never expire, so anything left over is there for your next job.
How does this compare to subscriptions?
Unlike monthly subscriptions that charge you even if you don't use the service, you only pay for what you actually use. Perfect for occasional users who don't need unlimited access.
What if I need more credits?
You can purchase additional credit packs anytime. Your credits accumulate, so buying multiple packs adds to your total balance.
Is my payment secure?
Absolutely! All payments are processed securely through Stripe, one of the world's most trusted payment processors. We never see or store your credit card information.
What happens to my files?
Your privacy is our priority. Uploaded files are deleted immediately after processing. Your results are available for download for up to 1 hour and are deleted after you download them. Only you can access your processed files.
