I benchmarked six apps and Speechmatics was right up there with Youtube subtitling for accuracy.

Speed, accuracy, saves me hours and hours of time doing audio transcription by hand and ear.

Pros:

It's the most accurate speech recognition software I've found, that is also usable. Youtube subtitling has the edge sometimes, but Youtube is also a real palaver to use - you have to make a video to start with and download as .srt file. Speechmatics just does it all for you and spits out a pdf.

Cons:

I'd prefer a Word doc for output because I can't edit the PDF! It also doesn;t tell you when the transcription is completed, you have to manually refresh the page.

Functionality

Pros:

It works pretty fast and has solved some pretty amazing tasks.

Cons:

It's not exactly criticism... Even though Speechmatics is deemed by many to be the best Speech-to-Text algorithm, even better than IBM's Watson, it still won't be 100% accurate. Background noises or mumbling speakers still make the tool fail and human interference is necessary.
