Recordly makes long interviews manageable with annotations and transcripts of your recordings.
A journalist, on average, spends 6 HOURS / WEEK transcribing, which slows down the reporting process and decreases productivity.
Automating transcription can help reporters save up to 2 business MONTHS a year. With Recordly, bloggers, reporters, and media organizations can spend this time to produce more stories.
What do media professionals use now?
* Default voice recording apps on their phone that only record audio.
* Voice recorders - old-fashioned, hard to integrate into a digital ecosystem, requiring additional cost.
* Commercial services $60-140/hour for situations when the deadlines are tight.
* Interns - inefficient, as staff reporters still need to peruse the audio to review the transcription.
