Trint

Trint is a cloud-based AI transcription platform founded in 2014 by journalist Jeff Kofman. It converts uploaded audio, video and live speech into searchable transcripts that users can edit, translate, annotate and share.

The product is aimed particularly at newsrooms, broadcasters, production teams, podcasters, researchers and communications departments. Its workflow combines transcription with collaboration, captions, story assembly, AI-assisted analysis and publishing exports.

Trint supports audio and video transcription, live transcription, transcript editing, speaker identification, searchable media, timestamps, captions, translations and collaborative review. Users can create stories or rough cuts from transcript passages.

Its AI Assistant can summarize transcripts, identify insights and find relevant quotes. Trint also provides desktop and mobile applications, integrations with collaboration and media systems, and APIs for uploads, transcripts, exports, translation, real-time transcription and webhooks.

Supported integrations include AP ENPS, Box, Dropbox, Google Drive, LiveU, Mimir, Octopus Newsroom, OneDrive, Saga, Sony Cameras, Zapier and Zoom. Availability can vary by plan or enterprise configuration.

Trint offers a 7-day free trial for new users without requiring a credit card. The trial provides access to the Advanced plan, transcription for up to three files with the first five minutes of each file, collaboration, captions, stories and translation features.

Current self-serve subscription prices are displayed through Trint’s authenticated plans and checkout pages rather than in a publicly readable price table. Trint also offers enterprise agreements, high-volume transcription and archive-use packages through sales. Because public pricing amounts could not be independently verified, this directory does not state numerical subscription prices.

Pros:

• Combines transcription, translation, captions and collaboration in one workflow.
• Supports live capture alongside uploaded audio and video.
• Provides desktop, mobile, web and API access.
• Offers integrations for cloud storage, news production, video and automation tools.
• Includes enterprise security features such as ISO 27001 certification and regional data-storage options.

Cons:

• Public self-serve pricing is not transparently listed in a readable price table.
• AI transcripts still require human review for names, accents, terminology and speaker attribution.
• Some independent reviewers describe the product as expensive compared with alternatives.
• High-volume and archive workflows may require an enterprise quote or add-on.

Comparable products include Descript, Otter.ai, Sonix, Rev, Happy Scribe and Amberscript. Descript is particularly comparable for transcript-based audio and video editing.
