When a human transcript is still worth paying for

Rev's distinctive service is human transcription at $1.99 per minute, which none of the apps above replace. That can be worth it for legal or broadcast work. For meetings, lectures, interviews and notes, AI transcription costs far less: Rev's price for one hour of human transcription is about $119, more than two years of Spiik Pro.
