Google cloud services made it much easier now and it made it possible to transcribe in hundreds of languages and accents. This is why we need artificial intelligence. > > **Cons**: Well, you get 60 minutes of free credits and some money in your account. For research purposes we need longer periods of time so free trial may not get you where you want to go other than amaze you how smart this AI is. > > Great time saving AI which is sure to take transcribers job from their hands. ----- ### "Google Cloud Speech-to-Text" — 5.0/5 > **Neleh** | *21 December 2022* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love how all I have to do is press on the microphone smybol on the keyboard and wait for it to say speak now, and then I can say exactly what I am wanting to say in a text to my husband or to my mother in law and the speech to text actually types what I say into text which makes texting a million times easier especially whenever I am busy with my children. > > **Cons**: There is nothing that I don't like about the Google speech to text. ----- ### "Speech to text really makes work easy and faster." — 5.0/5 > **Jigar** | *20 June 2023* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Voice Recognition and speech to text conversion really makes the work faster and professional. > > **Cons**: Overall its amazing i could not find any thing which is not useful its really awesome. ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/358066/google-cloud-speech-to-text) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
