Throughout institutions, audio recordings are being made regularly. To be able to further process these recordings, the audio often needs to be transcribed. In order to avoid having to transcribe the audio manually, there is a wealth of tools available for doing so automatically. In this record, we present an overview of several often-used tools to automatically transcribe pre-recorded audio data, including their features, costs, and security. To check the quality of the tool, we also recorded an audio fragment in Dutch that we ran through all tools in this overview in March of 2022. This original audio fragment (Test_interview_20220203.mp3), the cleaned-up transcription (Test_interview_cleaned_transcript.odt) and each tool’s raw transcript of the audio fragment (Test_interview_[name-tool]_raw_[date-run]) are included in this record as well. The raw transcripts were downloaded as .docx or .txt files and the .docx files saved as .odt. No edits to the transcripts were made before saving them, except an incidental removal of a personal email address or hyperlink. The overview contains information and transcripts of following transcription tools: Amberscript HappyScribe Kaldi NVIVO transcription Sonix SpokenOnline Transcribe Trint Microsoft Word 365 Online About This overview was created through a collaboration between Utrecht University’s Research Data Management (RDM) Support and the DataHub SSH programme situated at the faculty of Humanities. The details in the overview have last been updated April 19, 2022.
