Human Proofreading API for Transcripts

Fix Errors. Keep Your Workflow.

Upgrade to human-quality transcription - accuracy, context, and speaker clarity

Solution for:

  • AI transcription vendors & LLM voice apps: Automatic human-proofreading fallback via API, webhooks, or Zapier (Light Proof, Full Proof, or Re-Transcription; timestamps, formatting, style guides).
  • Video, conferencing & meeting platforms: Add a “Human Proofread” button with a one-line embed; white-label ready.
  • Enterprises (regulated/brand-critical): Audited editors, governed workflows, premium SLAs, HIPAA/GDPR/PII controls.
  • Media, podcast & call-center platforms already using ASR: Upsell human-verified accuracy, diarization, and polished formatting

  • What this API offers: Turn rough AI transcripts into publish-ready text - without rebuilding your workflow.

Receive results via webhooks, in the formats your team already uses.

  • Who it helps: Businesses producing lots of audio/video - or already offering AI transcripts - who want to upsell human-verified accuracy and compliance.

  • Why GoTranscript: Human accuracy up to 99.4%, rush options when deadlines bite, and enterprise-grade security (NDAs, GDPR/HIPAA-capable). 100+ languages, SDH/FCC captioning, and predictable pricing that’s cheaper than full human from scratch.
