In today’s fast-paced digital world, the ability to quickly transcribe audio and video content into accurate, readable text is not just a convenience — it’s a necessity for content creators, newsrooms, and media professionals worldwide.

For the past year at Ringier AG, we’ve been using a cutting-edge AI-powered audio and video transcription service for internal use.

Understanding the diverse needs of our internal users, we’ve developed an easily accessible Web and mobile application designed to cater to newsrooms across the 20 countries Ringier operates.

This universal approach ensures that no matter where users are or what device they prefer, our transcription service is just a few clicks away. It’s built to scale, accommodating projects of any size — from short clips to hours-long recordings — without compromising speed or accuracy.

Ringier's cutting-edge AI-powered audio and video transcription service provides unparalleled accuracy in converting speech to text.

Powered by the latest AI technology

The latest AI models are at the heart of our transcription service, which provides unparalleled accuracy in converting speech to text. However, what truly sets us apart is our commitment to privacy and data protection.

Unlike many services that rely on third-party infrastructures, we host all used AI models on Ringier’s secure cloud infrastructure servers. This approach not only enhances data security but also ensures compliance with stringent privacy regulations, making our service a trustworthy choice for businesses and individuals alike.

Recognising the global nature of our user base, we’ve integrated powerful new features to meet the evolving needs of our internal customers. Our built-in translation functionality allows users to instantly translate their transcriptions into multiple languages, breaking down language barriers and opening up content to a global audience.

Furthermore, our subtitle support feature makes it easy to add accurate captions to videos, enhancing accessibility and engagement for worldwide viewers.
