Features

Verbatim Studio provides a complete transcription workflow — from recording to searchable, AI-enhanced transcripts. All core features work in both the desktop app and the enterprise edition.

Live Transcription

Record from any audio source with real-time speech-to-text. The transcription runs locally using Whisper models — no audio leaves your machine. Supports microphone input, system audio capture, and file import.

Speaker Identification

Automatic speaker diarization identifies who said what. Edit speaker names, merge duplicate speakers, and assign colors for visual clarity. Speaker labels persist across the transcript and are included in exports.

OCR & Document Processing

Import PDFs, images, spreadsheets, and Word documents. OCR extracts text from scanned documents and images, making everything full-text searchable alongside your transcripts.

Semantic Search

Search across all your transcripts, documents, and recordings using natural language. Find content by meaning, not just keywords. Results are ranked by relevance and can be filtered by date, project, or type.

AI Summaries & Chat

Generate summaries, action items, and key points from any transcript. Chat with your documents using AI to ask questions and get answers grounded in your content. Supports OpenAI, Anthropic, and any OpenAI-compatible provider.

Projects & Organization

Organize recordings, transcripts, and documents into projects. Add tags, notes, and custom metadata. Export transcripts in multiple formats including plain text, SRT subtitles, and JSON.
