A private alternative to cloud transcription apps
Cloud note-takers send your recordings to their servers. Scribo transcribes on your own computer, then gives you the text and .srt subtitles.

FAQ
Does it join my meetings like a bot?
No. Scribo transcribes recordings you already have; it doesn't join calls.
Is Scribo affiliated with Otter.ai?
No. Otter.ai is a trademark of its owner; Scribo is an independent tool.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. The AI model downloads to your browser once, then all the work happens on your computer or phone. You can check: once the model is loaded, the tool keeps working with your internet turned off.
