HappyScribe supports 120+ languages across transcription, subtitles, translation, and AI meeting notes. Coverage varies depending on the feature you're using, so here's a breakdown of what's available and where.

AI-generated transcription and subtitles

Upload your audio or video file and HappyScribe will generate a transcript or subtitle file in the original spoken language. You can also translate and convert it into another language.

AI Notetaker (online meeting transcripts)

Our AI Notetaker can join and record your meetings on Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams, then automatically generate a transcript afterward.

Human transcription and subtitles

If you need higher accuracy, or require custom styling such as verbatim transcription or SDH (subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing), our professional linguists will handle the file for you — carefully proofread and ready to use.
