The engines
Dictation, summarization and speech synthesis share one brain — your voice profile, your vocabulary, your tone. Nothing gets lost between the studio and the release.
Whisper-grade transcription with speaker diarization, per-word timestamps and intelligent filler removal. It knows "um" isn't a sentence.
LENA [00:12:04] So the internet went quiet, and nobody noticed…
Chapters with timestamps, editorial show notes, pull quotes, an SEO blog draft, a newsletter and a month of social clips — generated from one pass.
32 studio voices and your own Voice Twin, delivered with breath, emphasis and imperfect timing. Listeners can't tell where your read ends.
Voice Twin · pacing 1.02× · warmth +12%
De-hum, de-ess, level-match and loudness-normalize to ‑16 LUFS for every platform.
Riverside, Descript, Zoom, Google Drive, Notion, Slack, Spotify and Apple — plus a documented API.
SOC 2 Type II, GDPR-ready, EU/US data regions. We never train on your audio.
Producer review queues, roles, approvals and white-label hand-off for networks.
Inside the product
Upload fast, edit inline, approve once. Switch between the three engines to see how one recording becomes eight assets.
00:12:04So the internet went quiet and nobody noticed — not the analysts, not the press.
00:12:31Which is the whole trick, isn't it? Quiet doesn't trend.
00:12:48Right. So we spent four months measuring silence — literally counting the pauses between posts.
cleanedUm, and the, the data was… honestly staggering.
Live languages
Code-switching across two languages in one sentence is handled natively — no manual splitting.

Why creators switch
The average indie show spends 6 hours 20 minutes on post-production for every hour recorded. Speakeasy collapses that to a coffee break — and the output is measurably better.

Social proof
"I used to lose two full evenings a week to transcripts and notes. Now the episode is finished before my guests have left the Zoom."
Speakeasy gave us the output of a five-person production team. We tripled our publishing cadence in a quarter and our ad revenue followed the chart.

"The Voice Twin unblocked my whole business model. I can run sponsor reads for six regional markets without re-recording a single line."
Marcus Bell
The Signal
"Our transcript pages now pull 40% of new listeners. That's traffic we simply didn't have before — indexed, searchable, credited to us."
Ilse Vermeer

"We localised our documentary series into nine languages. Listeners thought we'd hired native hosts in each market."

Ask us anythingAcross 1.4M processed episodes we average 99.1% word accuracy — measured on real rooms with crosstalk, plosives and laughing fits, not clean studio reads. Speaker diarization is right 97% of the time even with four or more voices, and you can correct any word inline; Speakeasy learns your show's names from there.
In blind tests, 78% of listeners identified our Voice Twin output as the host's original recording when placed beside a genuine take. The engine models breath, soft emphasis and natural pacing — and you can dial in imperfection. For sponsor reads, intros and multi-language versions, that's usually indistinguishable enough to ship.
Three minutes of clean speech — or any episode you've already published. Training finishes in under three minutes and the model is private to your workspace. Consent verification is required for every clone, including your own, and Voice Twins can be revoked at any time.
41 languages for dictation and 41 for synthesis, with automatic code-switching mid-sentence. Output is loudness-matched per platform (Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, Amazon Music), and we publish directly to your RSS host, so nothing touches an FTP client again.
Never. Your recordings, transcripts and voice models are yours alone and are excluded from all training pipelines by contract. Files are encrypted at rest (AES-256) and in transit, with EU or US data residency, SOC 2 Type II controls, and one-click deletion that removes derived assets too.
Nothing breaks and nothing auto-bills. We surface a heads-up at 80% usage, then metered overages at a flat rate you approve first — or a one-click upgrade with the difference prorated. Downgrade whenever you like and keep every asset you've already generated.
No. Upload the file you already have — Zoom, Riverside, a phone memo, a single-track mix — and Speakeasy handles restoration, leveling and separation. Most hosts press record exactly as before and simply stop the work that happened after.
