Converting Your Audio to Text with Amazon Transcribe

Amazon Transcribe is one of Amazon Web Services' (AWS) machine learning offerings. You input audio or video; Transcribe converts it to text, allowing you to identify the languages used and the number of speakers in the process. You can then take this transcription and do multiple things with it, including search, analytics, subtitles, translations, or even feeding it back into Amazon Polly to read your transcription back to you. When you start a Transcribe job, you're asked to pick out the language that's being spoken -- or have Transcribe automatically detect it for you. Also, there was really no rhyme or reason to the words and phrases I picked, other than they were the first that came to mind!
