Frequently asked about switching from Trint
Yes. Our Unlimited plan is $9.99 per month billed yearly or $14.99 month to month, with no minute cap. Most Trint customers spend more than that once they pass the included minutes on a comparable tier.
Most users do. Sign up, drop a file, and you have a transcript with speaker labels in minutes. No data migration is needed because each file is independent. If you have an archive on Trint, export the transcripts you want to keep and upload future audio to us.
Our AI delivers 99% accuracy on clear audio in supported languages. Independent benchmarks place us in the same tier as the leading AI transcription tools. Accuracy depends mostly on audio quality, accents, and overlap, not on which vendor processes the file.
No. You can transcribe the first 30 minutes without signing up. Create a free account to keep your transcripts, edit them in the browser, and pick from 11 AI templates.
Start on the free plan, which gives you 10 minutes every month, so you can confirm the accuracy on your own audio before you pay. Paid plans are billed in advance and all sales are final, but you can cancel anytime to stop future charges. If you ever hit a genuine technical problem, email hi@convertaudiototext.com and we'll make it right.
