THE SMALL THINGS

Small things that matter.

What other tools skip, and Scribewell doesn't.

No meeting bot

Nothing joins your calls or emails your contacts. You pick the recordings you want written up.

No file or minute counter

Otter caps imports at 10 files a month and Word Transcribe at 300 minutes. Pro has no meter at all.

Transcripts saved next to the recording

Plain .txt and .srt files beside the audio, so your own folders and backups keep working.

Click a word to hear it

Check a quote in seconds instead of scrubbing through an hour of audio.

Works on a plane

No internet needed to transcribe, so interviews can be written up anywhere.

No account to create

Install and start. No sign-up, no trial that turns into a subscription.

Private by design. Everything runs on your computer. AI is optional and only runs when you ask.

Meetings in.Clean transcripts out.

Meeting and interview recordings sit unused because transcribing them means uploading private conversations to a cloud service and paying every month.
