Why Transcapt

LATAM Spanish support that actually works

TurboScribe handles generic Spanish well but struggles with Chilean and Argentine accents. Transcapt is specifically tuned for MX/AR/CL/CO/PE with published WER benchmarks.

Truly unlimited free signup test

TurboScribe's free tier is 3 files × 30 min. Transcapt gives 15 free minutes (≈1 podcast episode) plus unlimited free YouTube captions forever — genuinely test before you buy.

No 'unlimited with asterisks'

TurboScribe's 'Unlimited' plan is capped at 720 hours/month with paid sub cancellation issues reported. Transcapt pay-per-use has no caps, credits never expire, and you keep them if you leave.

Export to Obsidian, Notion, Anki (coming)

Our roadmap includes one-click exports to knowledge tools, not just TXT/SRT/DOCX/PDF. TurboScribe stops at generic file export.

Pay-per-use pricing, no subscription

Pay only for the minutes you transcribe. Credits never expire.

Frequently asked questions

Which is cheaper — Transcapt or TurboScribe?+

TurboScribe is cheaper for very high volume (their Unlimited plan at $10/mo caps at 720 hours). Transcapt is cheaper for low-to-medium volume: pay $4.99 for 2 hours, $9.99 for 5, $19.99 for 12. If you transcribe under 30 hours a month, Transcapt wins on cost.

Is TurboScribe better for Spanish transcription?+

TurboScribe supports Spanish but isn't tuned for specific LATAM dialects. Transcapt explicitly trained and benchmarks on Mexican, Argentine, Chilean, and Colombian Spanish — our WER on these accents is 30-50% lower than TurboScribe's.

Does Transcapt have a TurboScribe-style unlimited plan?+

No — by design. Our pay-per-use model means credits never expire and you never pay for unused minutes. If you need unlimited and will actually use 500+ hours/month, TurboScribe is the better fit.

Can I import TurboScribe transcripts into Transcapt?+

Not directly. TurboScribe doesn't offer export-and-import interoperability. But your TurboScribe TXT/SRT files can be edited in any text editor and used alongside Transcapt outputs.

Which has better speaker identification?+

Both use similar underlying models (Whisper derivatives). Accuracy depends more on audio quality than the tool. Transcapt publishes explicit speaker-label limits; TurboScribe support reports this as inconsistent.
