Which one fits you better?
Honest, no marketing fluff. Where Scribie is the right call, we say so.
Choose CATT if:
- You transcribe regularly and per-minute human pricing would cost more than a flat $14.99/mo
- You need the transcript back in minutes rather than waiting on a human queue
- You want the work that comes after the transcript: templates, action items, decisions, an email draft
Choose Scribie if:
- The recording is genuinely hard: courtroom audio, heavy crosstalk, strong accents over noise
- You need a stated verbatim accuracy target and a human name behind it
- You need court-ready legal formatting for a deposition, which is a document standard, not a model output
