Hands-on HyNote review: full 10-minute transcript on the free plan in about a minute, 21.1% word error rate on a real four-person meeting, but no speaker labels. Pricing and who it suits. Tested October 31, 2026.
Hands-on HappyScribe review: best full-meeting accuracy in our four-tool test (19.1% word error rate) with four speakers labelled. It advertises 85% accurate; we measured about 81%. Free plan is 10 minutes once. Tested October 31, 2026.
Hands-on Transkriptor review: tied for best accuracy (12.8% WER) on the first 5.5 minutes of a real meeting, transcribed in under a minute, but the free plan cut our 10-minute file at 5:35. Tested October 31, 2026.
Hands-on Otter.ai review: we scored it on a real 10-minute, four-person meeting. 19.5% word error rate, four speakers close to the real split, automatic keywords, and a free plan with only three file imports. Tested October 31, 2026.
Hands-on test: the same real 10-minute, four-person meeting through Otter, Transkriptor, HappyScribe and HyNote on free plans, scored by word error rate against a human transcript. Accuracy was a tie; the free-plan limits were not. Tested October 31, 2026.
