What users say

Pros

  • Voices sound noticeably more natural and emotionally expressive than standard text-to-speech alternatives.
  • Scribe transcription produces exceptionally accurate text across multiple languages and dialects, complete with word-level timestamps.
  • Cheaper plans cover entire audio production for small games and apps, from character lines to sound effects.

Cons

  • It's expensive, especially for long-form or high-volume audio.
  • Mispronounced words and garbled numbers force regenerations, and every retry costs credits.
  • Paid credits can vanish: unused balances are cut on cancelling, and suspended accounts lose access to them.
  • Refund and billing requests get automated AI replies instead of a person, and often no resolution.
