SpeakerText automates video transcription by combining speech-to-text engines with crowdsourced remote transcribers who correct errors. Videos are first processed by an automated speech-to-text engine, then broken into chunks and sent to online transcribers for correction. Transcripts are synchronized to the video so clicking any word or sentence jumps to that exact spot. Viewers can share quotes linked to specific moments via email, Twitter, or Facebook. The product is designed to make videos discoverable and SEO-friendly by turning video content into searchable transcripts. The company raised a $600,000 angel round led by Mitch Kapor.
