|---|---|---|
| What it does | Sonix transcribes audio and video into text with a browser editor, speaker labels, timestamps, and caption tools. | Happy Scribe combines transcription, subtitle editing, meeting recording, and optional human proofreading services. |
| When to consider it | Consider it for occasional files when pay-as-you-go billing fits better than a recurring team subscription. | Consider it when subtitle production or an optional human proofreading service belongs in the transcription workflow. |
| What to check first | Compare the subscription allowance, extra-hour charges, storage, and seat costs before switching. The trial is temporary, not an ongoing free tier. | Uploaded-file transcription and meeting recording have different free conditions. Human proofreading is separately priced; inspect export restrictions in the chosen tier. |

| Pricing details | The provider lists a 30-minute trial, pay-as-you-go transcription, and subscriptions with included hours. Extra usage and additional seats can change the total cost. | The free offer distinguishes a ten-minute AI transcription trial from meeting recordings capped at 45 minutes each. Paid plans add allowances and capabilities; human proofreading has separate per-minute charges. |
