Interview Transcription Software with Vibe
Interview transcription software should preserve more than words. A reliable workflow keeps the original recording, separates speakers, retains timestamps for checking quotations, and creates a useful export without forcing unpublished audio into a browser service. Vibe is an open-source desktop option for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
