Amazing support and reasonable prices. I'm interested in how language learners can benefit from recording themselves in and out of class and following the transcript as they listen back to their recordings. I discovered that if you ask SpeechtoNote for a translation of the transcript into the same language as the recording, it gives you "a more coherent version". Lots of ways for language learners to improve their speaking
