Transkriptor alternatives
2 open-source projects that already do this job. Free to use - not free to run, which is what the numbers on the right are for.

What you give up either way
- Polished native mobile apps and browser extension out of the box
- Pre-built integrations and meeting bots for Zoom/Google Meet/Microsoft Teams
- High-scale infra, analytics dashboard and multi-seat team management features
- Any proprietary transcription model or training-data advantages the vendor may have
An open-source project doing the core job proves a replacement is possible. It does not prove it matches Transkriptor, and it does not prove anyone has run it for a month. How we decide.
