Voice Pen, an AI-powered transcription of speech to text, is growing in features

We have already talked about Oasis as a platform that allows transcribing audio to text and more thanks to the use of artificial intelligence models, but we have also talked about other similar options, such as Audio Pen, which is a web-based tool for two months of history and during this time some visibility is obtained, appearing in Platforms like ProductHunt.

AudioPen is a service Freemiumwhich offers limited capabilities to free account users, while improving options for subscribers, who will be able to choose a premium account for $60 per year or $120 for life.

Subscribers will have more possibilities

With a subscription, users can record up to 15 minutes per note, get unlimited cloud storage, as well as features like the ability to create customizable long-form summaries of texts, better search capabilities, tag customizations, and more.

Audio Pen is a service developed by Louis Pereira that uses the OpenAI API called Whisper to implement its functions, with which new capabilities will arrive soon, which the developer is already working on.

Subscriber Style Library – New today

In this regard, Pereira announced today that subscribers are adding a new ability called the Writing Style Library, with which they can change their notes into different styles, as they choose them.

As described in his book Twitter account:

Prime users can now dynamically select AudioPen patterns to overwrite immediately after they finish recording.
Bookmark your favorite styles and hit record without worrying about your default writing style.

It is necessary to have a permanent internet connection

Anyway, as TechCrunch points out, being a web-based service, users must need a stable internet connection, where in the case of mobile iPhone users, due to the peculiarities, they have to grant permission to access the microphone each time they are going to record a note.

Anyway, it’s a rather interesting project that started from a previous experiment the developer did by himself to explore all the possibilities of the OpenAI API, and given the results, he decided to create a standalone web-based app.
